President Uhuru Kenyatta criticised for buying beds from Mungai Gathogo, 26, and Joseph Muhinja, 35, leaving better beds innovated by Meshack Otieno.
Kenyans online criticised the move saying Meshack Otieno name had betrayed him and the President showed open tribalism.
Meshack Otieno came up with the innovative hospital beds a week before Mungai Gathogo, 26, and Joseph Muhinja, 35, created theirs.
The Government will also link up local manufacturers with SME fund to raise capital for start-ups and to expand existing businesses in a drive towards the realization of the Manufacturing pillar under the Big Four agenda as explained by PDU Secretary Andrew Wakahiu.
Mungai and Muhinja who currently employ seven youth promised to hire more young people to ensure the order will be delivered in one and half months thus help create more jobs in the country.
Meshack Otieno a welder based in Juja has been thrown out to the cold after his innovation made others rich faster.
"Meshack Otieno is making better hospital beds but the fact that he's not a Njehia or Kamau he can not qualify for the Presidential booster, " KOT posted
" His name betrays him...how long shall I remind you these things, " the online busters posted.
