Kabaka who has been a close ally to Mutua on Monday decried gross violation of the Constitution and other laws by Mutua while discharging his duties. 

He noted that the governor flouted the financial and procurement laws. 

Among the issues the Senator wants Mutua investigated for include Sh89 million meant for de-silting of Marumba Dam and another Sh50 million pumped by the Anish International development agency. 

"Since 2013 until now Machakos has lost billions of money and we should stop sugarcoating things. The fact remains Mutua will be in trouble when DPP and EACC land in Machakos," said Kabaka. 

The legislator spoke when he attended the burial of former Machakos Municipality Mayor Donald Mutua in Mumbuni where he urged residents vet individuals seeking elective positions before electing them. 

In the recent past, the electorate has sought the Senate’s intervention to probe governor Mutua and a section of his team for falsifying claims through exaggerated budgets of public participation meetings done to justify monies already spent.
