Controversy
Kuria's political career has been marred by controversy. His outspokenness has had him branded a 'tribalist'; he spent several nights in cold Kenyan cells.[3][clarification needed] His ravaging attacks on Kenya's opposition has created a sharp schism among political protagonists; while the opponents feel that Kuria is a 'loose cannon' who is poised to incite his community against the others, his proponents believe that he is an ardent defender of their interests in the political arena.[citation needed]
