Speaking on Friday at a funeral in Gesusu ward, Kisii County the MP termed the assassination claims as cheap politics meant to give DP Ruto a political mileage. 

Machogu argued that DP Ruto should stop seeking sympathy from Kenyans ahead of 2022 polls. 

"No one is interested to assassinate DP Ruto. The cheap politics being played around must stop. This is the time leaders should serve the electorate," said Machogu. 

The vocal lawmaker maintained that Cabinet Secretaries are not serving DP Ruto but Kenyans. 

He challenged CSs from Mt Kenya region to ignore the assassination claims and focus on serving Kenyans towards the implementation of the President's Big Four agenda. 

"There is no Cabinet Secretary appointed to serve interests of a leader or one region. CSs from Mt Kenya region must serve all Kenyans irrespective of tribe. Leaders must continue holding meetings to discuss development," he added. 

The MP warned that should politicians continue concentrating on propaganda, development won't be realised.
