Political analyst Brian Weke has termed the recent revelation of attempted theft of public funds in Kiambu county just a tip of the iceberg among elected politicians.
This is after it emerged that the county had allocated monies for 'strange projects' among them the upkeep of former president's, which is the central government's role.
Speaking on Saturday, the commentator said that this could be the reason behind unending politicking by politicians allied to the Deputy President William Ruto.
Kiambu is under Ferdinand Waititu who is a close ally to Ruto.
"This could be the reason why they are bringing in politics huku wakificha ufisadi wanaofanya (as they secretly engage in corruption)," said Weke.
He was speaking on Radio Jambo's Mazungumzo Waziwazi show, also attended by Makadara MP George Aladwa.
Weke stressed on the need for a serious probe into Waititu's case, adding that he should be answering to questions from investigators by now.
"Watu kama hawa tunafaa tuongee wakiwa ndani (such people should have been arrested already)," he added.
The audit report adds that the county also set aside funds to cater for the ongoing South Sudan peace talks, state affairs and free primary education.
However, according to the constitution, such roles are not handled by the lower governments.
