Nominated MP Millicent Omanga had responded to Bevalyne Kwamboka who has gained popularity under the name 'chips mwitu' girl for her side hustle of frying and selling chips by the roadside.

Omanga said her attention had been drawn to Kwamboka's plight while she was outside the county and she immediately dispatched her team to respond to the cause and offer her the support she requested for.

The lawmaker took to her own Twitter account to respond to Kwamboka's claims that she only donated an umbrella, two aprons and potatoes worth Sh350 and not a full sack as had been alluded on social media in what has turned into a heated exchange of words.

"When it was brought to my attention that Bevalyne Kwamboka had publicly requested for an umbrella to help shield her from rain and sun as she does her chips business I was out of the country but immediately dispatched my team to visit her and offer her the help she needed," she wrote.

The MP insinuated that there was a deliberate attempt to paint her in a negative light.
