A reptile momentarily stamped its authority when it caused pandemonium at the Yatta home of former Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka.
The gathering of politicians organized by the Wiper Party leader and 2022 presidential aspirant Kalonzo Musyoka at the farm house in Machakos County, saw the leaders run helter skelter to avoid the snake.
The special reptile guest appeared uninvited and slithered menacingly until a man wearing Wiper colours confronted it caught it by his right hand and walked away with it as it wagged its tail.
The snake appeared when the crowd had already settled and guests had to scamper for safety, with a few brave ones rattling the reptile which slithered into the tent at 12 noon.
Those in the meeting confirmed that at the time of the unexpected, the chief guest, Kalonzo Musyoka hadn’t arrived at the venue.
“The snake was big in size,” eyewitnesses said.
The snake was later smashed with a stone be enraged Party functionaries .
One of the attendees of the event, thereafter, took its remains to an unknown place.
Musyoka met Ukambani leaders, pooled from politics and the business community, who are allied to him.
The purpose of the meeting was to strategically position Wiper and chart the way forward ahead of the August 9 General Election.
The meeting, however, continued after the snake scare.
