When you are out of power, people will not pick up your calls - Former Kenyan Deputy Governor who now hawks firewood says






A former Kenyan Deputy Governor, Caleb Amaswache, is now hawking firewood in Luanda town to earn a living and pay his bills.


The ex-Vihiga County Deputy Governor served under former county boss, Moses Akaranga. Citizen TV caught up with him in Luanda doing his usual business of supplying firewood to various hotels.


He pointed out how life has not been a walk in the park after leaving office, a situation he described as undeserving after serving as a deputy governor.


He added that he could not afford to pay for his bills, including catering for his children's education.


"I need a job. I'm asking His Excellency William Ruto to consider those who were in government at one given time. We are all Kenyans and the President should take care of all of us," he remarked.


"I don't have enough capital. I have a daughter who's going to school and I need Ksh.200,000 for a start."


All he is left with are portraits of him and senior government officials who mingled with him during his heyday.


This reflects what he went through both during his time in power and after losing it.


Amaswache pointed out that his past attempts to apply for jobs were in vain, citing that his application was not shortlisted in the ongoing Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Commissioner interviews.


He cautioned current leaders to respect others, highlighting that power is transient.


"My advice to those in power is to respect and protect those who previously served in office.


Today you could be in office, tomorrow you could not," he added.

“When you're in power, everything looks flashy, everyone respects you, but when you are out of power, that's when you discover the true reflection of things. People will not pick up your calls because they don't need you.”

Sure . They are not allowed to steal unlike your people

.

Humn! Being in the corridor of power is just a transient phase of life.

This is majorly for show coz his Skin and Dress does not correspond with the Firewood.

Ok noted, do you know that killer Fulani herdsmen does not kill Muslims non attack Muslims community, Islamic jihad is still going on in Nigeria

yes Zamfara is a Christian State in Nigeria

If they are not picking his calls, it means he misused the opportunity and the platform he had to build relationships.

Even Jesus commended the manager who, knowing he was going to be fired, made friends with his boss's debtors by giving them steep discounts.

Words on a marble

Unbelievable!!... Could it be Nemesis?🙄 Wetin I know sef

Na lie abeg. Ex government officials should have a reasonable allowance or even pensions for life. I don't believe this

He wasted all the money

Let him come do an understudy for one local government chairman in our beloved country for six months,by the end of his service he go don buy one mansion in US,one in Dubai and another one in UK.
By the time he retired,his monthly pension will be enough to feed a whole town for a week,he won't even know what hawking of firewood is.

That is what the illegitimate certificateless mandate thief will reduce his beloved Agbados in the next few years the way he reduced his friend from driving a rolls Royce to now honda

This cannot happen in Nigeria because he would have stolen so much money that his generation cannot finish spending.

Nollywood lol na mumu dey fall for this kain story

No allow Kenyans enter naija oh... If they enter and learn from our politicians like yahaya bello... Then Kenya is finished

Lies or his look alike

One quote that has kept me going in this life is: NOTHING LASTS FOREVER!

I have already made up my mind on that, look around what has happened, what is still happening and what will happen in your environment and your life and believe that quote. Just as gossips last for days or weeks so is that quote.

He forget to steal for future use,yaya Bello and
deputy can never be like this.

Almighty God, Please let my helpers be among people reading this comment. I'm so dry and I need to be rescued, any amount will be appreciated I'm taking basic 3 and salary have not been paid getting to 2 months, Currently, I'm working on getting other job.
Your will help me get through this difficult period.Thank you and God bless

He went back to the past. Opada si ese aro.

This story na lie

He was wasting money and power anyhow during his time although deputy governor is not even doing well in Africa as a whole

Nawao for this country

Sunnyshinylight:
Sure . They are not allowed to steal unlike your people

Lol, you are so gullible

For this same Africa?

Shalommy:
Unbelievable!!... Could it be Nemesis?🙄 Wetin I know sef

abi na village people . It's so hard to believe. Maybe he's creating content

Can't happen in the shit hole

An ex local government chairman can't be hawking firewood

that's how they steal and loot in Tinubu footsteps

What is wrong in fetching firewood. Really if we look into this firewood fetching, you may be shocked at the millions he has invested and making in return but media will present it as a lowlife for him. As a former Deputy governor he should be on pension or have connections.

The piece says county deputy Govornor. Like a local government deputy chairman. Not a state Deputy Govornor

And it says he supplies firewood to Hotels. Abeg shey na firewood them dey take cook for Kenya Hotels ni?
