Jalang'o buys mukombero

The politician, via his Instagram page, showcased the mukombero he had bought from a vendor in CBD.

The man was selling mukombero and he had different forms of it. Some in powder form and others in sticks.

Jalang'o asked the man benefits of the mukombero and he answered:

"Inaosha figo na inakupea nguvu ile ya mwanaume. Powder unaweka kwa chai, maji moto, kahawa kinywaji yoyote ile moto... Unakula ngozi yake hiyo,"

The politician bought one worth KSh 100 and hilariously asked the vendor how he was going to use it.

"Does it work? Give me one fo KSh 100," he said.
