Thursday, May 23, 2024 - Githunguri Member of Parliament Gathoni Wamuchomba has attacked Kirinyaga County Governor Anne Waiguru as the battle for Mt Kenya region succession intensifies.
In a social media post on Wednesday, Wamuchomba criticized the governor, stating that she was in no position to lecture the region's leaders on matters of succession.
Wamuchomba
added that the governor should either join them in their search for a kingpin
or remain quiet.
The MP, who has been leading an onslaught against President
William Ruto's administration, criticized the Council of Governors chairperson
over what she termed as ‘sitting pretty in leadership’ while her people suffer
from economic challenges.
“Dear Governor Waiguru, with much respect stop lecturing us on who should speak about what Mt. Kenya Region.
"You are the Chair of the
Council of Governors sitting pretty as we struggle with the rising economic
stress, closing businesses, alcoholism and neglect of projects by the Kenya
Kwanza regime which you are now defending online,” she said.
Wamuchomba went on to reprimand Waiguru following her trip
to the United States in the company of President Ruto, pointing out that her
focus should be to ensure she brings home goodies rather than giving political
directions.
“Now that you are in the USA with the presidential jet, enjoy the ride quietly but ask those wazungu to give you money to complete our projects na sio LOANS!
"And by the way here at home we are speaking the language of One Man One Shilling while you are away.
"Prepare to either Join us or shut up!”
said Wamuchomba.
According to the lawmaker, Waiguru has been mum on the
issues affecting her people and has not used her position as the CoG chair to
root for resources for her people.
She blames the governor for not voicing out the problems
ailing both Dairy and Coffee farmers in Central Kenya and the stalled
government projects.
