Kenyans on the social media have hailed a brave pedestrian who single-handedly blocked a vehicle belonging to a Member of Parliament, from overlapping.
Footage of the incident went viral online moments after it was shared by activist Boniface Mwangi on Twitter. The man, identified as David Lemayian stood in front of the black Mercedes, registration number KCC 600P to stop it from being driven on the wrong side of the road.
"Arrived to Twitter to a lot of love. A lot of Kenyans tired of waheshimiwa thinking they can live above the law. This car belonging to a Member of the National Assembly was breaking the law. I would never ask anyone to risk their lives but I am tired too. #ActNOW." Lemaiyan said in a tweet.
Lemayian is seen in blue jeans, a yellow stripped t-shirt and carrying a bag courageously refusing to move from the way. He is seen confronting the driver to use the right lane.
"Brave active citizen @DavidLemayian stopping a law breaker. We need more brave Kenyans like him! If the police won’t enforce the law, we the citizens will. #TeamCOURAGE," Boniface Mwangi captioned the video.
National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) records indicate that the car is owned by Kapseret MP Sudi Kipchumba Oscar. It was been driven by a young man wearing a cap.
@ronoh_gie said; “This guy must have a lot of faith in humanity to believe that simply because he is right there in front of the car someone won’t run him over.”
@akareizG noted: "This dude is Legend. True Kenyan with spine."
@MuasaJoseph said:" They make the rules so they can break them."
@Lynnoxy asked: "Is he the same MP who forged academic papers?"
@kakundef said; “Try that before a probox or huku kwetu eastlando utajua hujui.”

@McOQuiry said: "They are here mama, men like @DavidLemayian who won't let those who percieved access to power has gone over their head, disobeying traffic rules with impunity. Give us a signal on how to deal with the ones with cheap sirens."
@frankfreddi noted: ".. Dwanzi yeye, shida ni sasa hatua haitachukuliwa."
@steveochi commented; “I once refused to move for an extra passenger in a Matatu. The makanga and driver almost beat me up.”
@MwangiRi tweeted; “I wld get out of car open bonnet n pretend something was wrong….simple …n Lemayian wld be on his way…! We don’t complain when hundreds of cows block our roads n cos traffic snarl ups! Not wise!”
