Outspoken Kirinyaga Governor Ann Waiguru on Wednesday met arguably Kenya's political protagonists amid ongoing succession battle of President Uhuru Kenyatta.
At Raila Odinga's Capitol Hill offices, the two agreed to bury their differences with Waiguru dropping a defamation suit she had filed against Raila.
"Held a meeting with Governor @AnneWaiguru and agreed to “let by-gones be by-gones” and leave the matter of the NYS scandal in the hands of investigators. She said her case against me is now settled in the spirit of reconciliation that the nation has embarked on," Raila said.https://twitter.com/RailaOdinga/status/1062697449435869184?s=19.
He added: "We also reviewed the status of devolution in the country and agreed to exchange views frequently on how to address the challenges."https://twitter.com/RailaOdinga/status/1062698149540716547?s=19.
In 2016, Raila adversely named Waiguru, then Devolution minister on the alleged scandal that saw the country lose over Sh791 million in NYS scandal.
But hours after leaving Capitol Hill, Waiguru hosted DP William Ruto at Hilton Hotel during Development Partners Forum that brought together non state actors and private sector.
In June, Waiguru, one of strongest candidate for 2022 election, also paid Ruto a courtesy call at Karen where she was accompanied by a host of MCAs.
