Ombeyi MCA Joshua Auko has alleged a plot to delay projects within his ward in Muhoroni Constituency.
Auko said he has information that the projects will be delayed to paint him as a slow worker for the people. He said he got more information from the contractors who were given the works for some projects.
“Some two contractors told me how they were prevailed upon to stop the work and delay it. I am wondering why this is happening,” he said.
Auko who is also the minority leader in the county assembly said the information he is getting from the executive is that nobody tendered for most of the projects in his ward.
Addressing a press conference at Imperial Hotel in Kisumu on Tuesday, Auko appealed to Governor Jack Ranguma to move with speed and ensure the projects are done for the people.
He said there are some people in the executive who are bent on derailing the development record of Ranguma.
“I am the representative of the people. I will tell them about the plot and I want to tell the people spearheading this that the ultimate loser is the people not me,” he said.
He said it is the people who will suffer if projects are delayed and not him. Auko warned that he will not allow outsiders to come to Ombeyi to stifle development.
