The people are getting the wrong message, that's why they are booing. Even if hustler politicians are living large like celebrities in a poor economy, it doesn't mean they don't care about hustlers.
Just as they gave each hustler 200/- to vote for them, they will surely give them another 200/- to make their lives better before the next elections. Ama namna gani? Trust the bottom up process

Directly, actually. But he should know the people in that region do not have a culture of jeering and booing. Unless they are incited.

This will be ignored.
Kagege has different meaning to what you're trying to project. What you're pointing out is tribe based politics which is bad but understandable. Communities will vote for their own if they see he/she stands a chance of winning.
"Kagege has been adopted by Kenyans into the political dictionary to mean a person who supports the government without question and who accepts everything they are told to believe even when the issue is an obvious lie."

The only time it's not understable is when MT Kenya does it. But for the rest 'its bad but understandable?'
Who says it's not understandable when Mt. Kenya votes for one of their own? They've always had strong presidential candidates since 92

They voted for the current president and everyone has been giving them grief for exercising their constitutional right.

When the word kagege was coined it meant a handpicked man with poor leadership (and who often can't express self coz of low education) deliberately sponsored by the kingman to do his bidding especially as a voting robot in parliament. They dance this way and that way as instructed. Marionettes.

It's now a broad spectrum definition for a person who hails from Mt Kenya and is assumed to have voted for the government of the day.
Is there a kalenjin word for kagege? Because even them majority voted for this government
