Machakos senatorial aspirant Henry Kioko has attacked Senator Johnston Muthama saying he has become a 'public address system' and has neglected his role in the Senate.
Kioko who was speaking on Friday dismissed Muthama as a pretender.
"We need a new beginning. When Muthama calls our women naked bodies, he is ultimately demeaning our leaders. Muthama has now spent close to five years in the Senate without a single Bill to progress the lives of the citizens," said Mr Kioko.
He added that Machakos women were bitter and the youth feel cheated by Muthama.
He urged candidates to be independent irrespective of their parties.
"We are in a battle that unites us. We want leaders who listen to people, selfless and those who serve the people. We do not want leaders who brand themselves community masters portraying a fact that without them there is no life," he added.
The candidate said these as he welcomed President Uhuru Kenyatta in Machakos county.
