Speaking about his health scare, Oburu revealed that his condition had become worrying, making him believe that he could die before getting an opportunity to express his views in Parliament.
“I thought I was going to die,” he said while reflecting on the difficult experience.
The veteran politician also took time to appreciate Nyandarua Senator John Methu for visiting him while he was admitted to hospital. He used the opportunity to dismiss any suggestion that the two were political enemies, insisting that their political differences did not make them personal rivals.
“We are not enemies,” Oburu said, acknowledging Methu's gesture during his hospitalisation.
However, the moment also attracted attention when Oburu appeared to mix up the names of political parties while referring to Methu. He mentioned DCP as DGP, prompting fellow senators to quickly correct him as he spoke about Methu's position in the party.
The exchange brought a lighter moment to the discussion, but Oburu's account of his illness remained the main highlight.
His appreciation of Methu also sent a message about the possibility of maintaining cordial personal relationships despite belonging to opposing political camps. The senator's hospital visit appeared to be a gesture Oburu genuinely valued, showing that political competition does not necessarily have to translate into personal hostility.
