According to Dennis Gekara, aspiring MCA in Kisii Central Ward, Duke Mainga was suspended for allowing BodaBoda association use the Gusii Stadium against Governor Ongwae's wish, a claim that Mr Duke denies. 

"Waziri Duke has been given a suspension letter for allowing Bodaboda association to use the Gusii stadium. They insulted the governor a reason he suspended the CEC," said Mr Gekara.

On his part,  blogger Ogachi said it will be suicidal for Governor Ongwae to suspend the youthful minister who successfully facelifted Gusii Stadium. 

"I have heard that my brother has been served with a suspension letter this evening. To Kisii County government please don't dare the youth if at all this is true,"said Ogacui.

Speaking to this writer, Mr Mainga said that he is in office to stay. He refuted claims of suspension and asked friends and supporters to treat that as a rumour. 

"Kindly treat the information making rounds on social media as unsubstantiated rumors from a very informal source. I am totally not aware of anything of this kind. God bless our great and peaceful county of plenty," said Mr Mainga, who unsuccessfully vied for Bomachoge Borabu seat in 2017.
