Published on July 3, 2020, Kirinyaga Deputy Governor Peter Ndambiri has hit out at his boss Ann Waiguru for using politics as a scapegoat to avoid accountability.
Speaking at a funeral at Mwea constituency on Thursday, July 2, Ndambiri said it was the responsibility of the county assembly to keep the governor on her toes and carry an oversight role to the Executive.
According to Ndambiri, Waiguru was hiding under politics, and he accused her of being selective in her development projects in various wards.
He noted that MCAs who were opposed to the county boss had been left out in her development agenda.
‘It’s (ward reps) their responsibility to play an oversight role for the Executive,’ he said.
The two Kirinyaga leaders have been in public battles, with the Senate exonerating Waiguru of all the allegations the assembly had levelled against her for her removal just a week prior.
