Kieni Member of Parliament Kanini Kega has joined the ongoing exchange between the two factions of the ruling Jubilee Party.
This comes at a time when the faction led to Deputy President William Ruto has been accusing President Uhuru Kenyatta's side of using the reignited purge on graft for a political witch hunt.
Speaking on Milele FM's Kivumbi Show Wednesday morning, Kega cautioned the group against reigniting the push, urging the leaders to let the matter be handled by the relevant institutions.
He noted that most of the people who have been presented in court over alleged involvement in corruption are from Mt Kenya.
Kega, therefore, wondered why others would complain yet only a few of their people have been implicated.
"The people complaining that the fight against corruption is targeting specific people should know that most of the people who have been implicated and prosecuted over the same are from Mt Kenya yet we are not complaining," he said.
He said that the group will only be justified to attack the investigative and prosecutions bodies for unfairness in the instance that the cases are thrown out due to lack of evidence.
"They cannot be heard to attack the Directorates of Criminal Investigations and Public Prosecutions unless the Judiciary throws out the cases and says that the cases presented before it was malicious," he added.
The growing fight has been worsened by the recent Arror and Kimwarer dams scandal, which Ruto's side claims is another veiled attack on the DP's 2022 presidential bid.
