Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri has accused President Uhuru Kenyatta of using him as a scapegoat to evade questions regarding unfulfilled electoral promises he made to the people of Bahati during his visit yesterday.

Ngunjiri a fierce critic of president Uhuru Kenyatta and an opposer of the handshake says that the president chose dwell on him instead of focusing on people-centered issues.

Ngunjri also stated that he will not shy away from criticising the president adding that the constitution gives him the mandate as an MP to oversight the executive.

“The President said that I should be told to let him do his job while I concentrate on my duties as an MP. I would like to remind the President respectfully that as an MP I am mandated to represent the voice of the people and also oversight the executive,” he stated.

President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday visited Bahati Constituency and accused him of insulting him.

Uhuru further chided Ngunjiri for working against the handshake adding that he will not be deterred from working towards uniting the country.

The Bahati MP however denied all these claims stating that his problem with the handshake and the BBI was because it was being hijacked by certain individuals to drive their 2022 Agenda.

“My issue is that the unity being pushed by the President and the former Prime Minister is marred with a lot of insincerity. Instead of building bridges, it appears some sections are stonewalling and building dams,” he said.

MATHARE POLICE HARASSMENT

A section of Mathare residents in Nigeria are up in arms over harassment and unlawful arrests of youths in the area.

The residents claim that police are harassing them after they refused to allow a group of chang’aa businessmen to grab an open land that they use for recreational activities.

Those who spoke to Ghetto Radio News claim that the businessmen then paid  the police money to revenge against the youth who blocked the land grabbing.

“From the day that the scuffle between the youth and chang’aa traders happened, the officers would just come and start firing. Some of us are arrested and taken to the police station. Funny thing is that we have never been charged, they are just demanding money from us,” said a youth in the area.

Linda Wanjiru says that her husband was arrested and taken to the Pangani Police Station.

She says that upon questioning why he was being arrested, the police only told her to give them money for him to be released.

“If these officers continue like this, the youth generation will be wiped out in Mathare. Because some of us are even arrested and thrown into police cells with ibabies on our backs,” she stated.

In his documents and sworn in affidavit, Sonko wants Kahiga out of finance  office saying  that he made changes way back before he was charged.

‘‘From the documents that   i have produced herein concerning the changes that i made in changes in CECs , it’s clear that the county secretary did not appoint the 1st interested party at all in the finance docket ,but merely forwarded the gazette notice to the government printer as required by the central bank of Kenya.’’ The affidavit reads.

Kahiga says the procedure to reshuffle her was unconstitutional  since Sonko has no such powers after he was charged.

Meanwhile opposition MCAs  led Peter Imwatok have hit out at Sonko over the same saying it’s shameful for the governor to move to court over illegality.

‘‘He  is bitter,  Kahiga did not pay big businessmen with huge amount in pending bills for him to receive kick-backs , the tussle here is the governor wants to control who to be paid in the 1.4 billion released by treasury but we shall not allow him,’ says Imwatok .

They further accused Sonko of using his acting county secretary Lebo Ole Morintat to back date things for his personal benefits.

‘‘Lebo must be told that as the assembly we are coming for him,he is the one used by Sonko to intimidate CECs transfer and punish staffs against illegality and we have seen that in inspectorate department..we shall deal with him.’’ He added.
