Gitaru Ward MCA Charles Arahuka has urged leaders in Kiambu County to work together for development
Speaking at Kanyariri church in Gitaru, Kabete Constituency on Sunday, the MCA said that leaders need to put aside their political affiliations and ideologies and work for the common good of Kenyans.
The MCA regretted that some leaders had abandoned their electorates and were busy politicking for the 2017 general elections.
“It is time for leaders to understand that they owe services to the people that elected them to office, and should start providing the needed services to them,” he said.
The Gitaru MCA said every leader elected by the people has the responsibility of promoting development.
He urged leaders irrespective of the ideologies to work with the county and the national government to foster development.
Meanwhile, the MCA who had attended the late former Kabete Member MP George Muchai's memorial service at Kanyariri ACK church urged the government of speed up the quest for justice for the late MP.
Arahuka who is also the Kiambu assembly chief whip said that the family of the late MP is yet to know who killed Muchai.
The MCA said that though the case is ongoing, the family needs to be given information and involved in the case.
“It is unfortunate that one year after the death of Muchai, the family and residents of Kabete still do not know who was behind the murder of the MP,” he said.
Muchai was killed by unknown gunmen in February, 2015 in Nairobi while heading to his Kamulu home after a family gathering in Westlands.
