Saturday, September 21, 2024 - Laikipia East MP Mwangi Kiunjuri’s son, Benson Munene, has publicly accused his father of being a conman for 27 years.
Taking to social media, Benson said his father has been in
the public service for nearly 3 decades but he has not done anything meaningful
that benefits Kenyans.
Benson said his father’s tenure as the Agriculture Cabinet
Secretary was marred with corruption to the extent that former President Uhuru
Kenyatta lectured him publicly.
“Uhuru gave you a job but your work was to steal and
sabotage him until you were fired,” he ranted in an explosive video posted on
social media.
He further distanced himself from this father and dropped
his name.
“Don’t associate me with Mwangi Kiunjuri from today. He is a
conman,” he said.
Kiunjuri’s disgruntled son said that every time he vies for a
political seat in Laikipia, people fail to vote for him because of his father’s
tainted image.
He vied for an MCA seat but locals said they won't vote
for him because he belonged to the Kiunjuri’s lineage.
Benson, who works as a taxi driver, continued to rant and
said he doesn’t get any financial help from his wealthy father.
He complained that people think he is rich but he struggles
to make ends meet just like any other Kenyan.
“Some people ask me for money thinking I am rich because I
am Kiunjuri’s son but I don’t get any financial help from him. I work hard as a
taxi driver and the little I get, I share with people,” he said.
Benson also declared his interest in the Laikipia Senatorial
seat and pledged that he would bring development to the people, unlike his
father.
