Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi has urged local activists to help Kenyans with court cases and those in prisons instead of meddling in legal cases in other countries.

Sudi's statement comes days after the Tanzanian government blocked and deported six Kenyan activists and other prominent Kenyans who were set to attend the Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu's court trial on Monday, May 19.

In a statement on his official X account on Wednesday, May 21, the MP commended the Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu for the move to deport the Kenyans.

If he were the Tanzanian president, Sudi said, he would have subjected the activists to more severe punishment, such as "caning them for two days".
