Mutua who spoke in Kivaani, Kangundo Sub County on Saturday said that he's sure that the MCAs don't hate him but they are being ordered by their bosses to constantly frustrate his leadership.

"These MCAs you see fighting me, it's not their wish and it's not that they hate me, they are just following orders from their bosses," said Mutua.

The county boss said that the reason he is being fought is that he has shown interest in the country's top seat and the aim of the fights is to nip his candidacy at the bud.

They are doing everything they can to frustrate my presidential ambition," he said.

Mutua who is serving his last term in office urged the Ward Representatives to avoid being used by some people for their selfish interests.

"There were two who were seated here but when they saw the meeting is a success, they went away," he noted.

Mutua was speaking at the launch of Universal Health Care registration exercise that was graced by the Cabinet Secretary for Health Sicily Kariuki.
