Ngewa member of county assembly Karungo Thangwa has questioned the county government's agricultural department for building a toilet block at Kshs. 3.2 million shillings at Waruhiu Agricultural Development Centre.
"Just recently, Kabogo launched a hospital in my ward at a cost of Kshs. 1.5 million shillings, how come that a toilet is more expensive than a hospital?" he questioned.
Thangwa who was speaking at Kameme FM during a morning show called Arahuka hosted by Gatonye Wa Mbugua on Tuesday noted that the county has been allocating hefty funds for few projects. He warned to table a motion seeking clarification on how the funds were used even before the oversight committee takes its course.
"I recently received a threat letter for questioning the performance of Kiambu county leadership. I am very ready to work for the interest of Ngewa people where Waruio is located," he said.
Thangwa who has been under surveillance for questioning the usage of Kiambu county funds revealed that he will not watch the county siphon public finances even when he is not backed by fellow MCAs.
He urged the county MCA to be public development oriented and evade misusing public funds. He however thanked the county for launching Mother and Son hospital in his ward which he said will be geared to offer efficient medical services to the locals in Githunguri.
