Jubilee Party Secretary General Raphael Tuju has disowned a Twitter account that blamed Nasa for the death of the boy at Pipeline estate in Nairobi.

The fake Tuju account had stated that Nasa were responsible for the boy’s death but were blaming the police.

But in an interview with Nairobi News Tuju said he had no Twitter account.

“I don’t tweet. It is not my account,” he said.

“I had an account but I don’t tweet anymore. They had created so many accounts in my name, I gave up,” he added.
