‘Jubilee man’ caught on camera dishing out cash
A video of a politician wearing a Jubilee party t shirt while handing out money has been shared online.
In the video, the politician is seen giving women, who are lining up, notes of money.
It is unclear what denominations the money was in.
The video that was shared by blogger Cyprian Nyakundi was simply captioned: “Jubilee giving handouts for people to attend their rallies in Coast.”
The ruling party concluded its rallies in the coastal region on Wednesday after meeting residents in Kilifi and Mombasa counties.
The video appears to have been taken at night with some recipients of the money donning Jubilee t shirts and carrying the party flag.
It is an election offense to bribe voters in any way as captured in the Election Offences Act.

Here are reactions to the video:
people deserve sitting/standing allowance when they attend rallies… MPs also get it for showing up in bunge
