Chieni Supermarket branches in the center of Nyeri towns and Nanyuki goods worth millions were stolen before being set on fire.
The MP said he suffered a loss of KSh 560 million following the raid.
He then went into a series of pleading with the looters to return the goods to the store.
But two months later, the MP seems to have recovered from the meeting.
The Member of Parliament started to revive the shops and save to continue serving his customers.
During the opening of the supermarkets earlier this week, Wainaina said he had forgiven the looters, saying they were criminals and not young people as it was portrayed.
“As a family we have forgiven those who destroyed our business. We believe these were common criminals and the damage done to my investment was not motivated by politics as those arrested were not Gen Zs,” said the member of parliament.
