Kabogo says that he has no links with NASA, adding that he will not engage his rival in petty politics.

In an interview with the Standard, Kabogo said that his rival has nothing to talk about and wants to drag him to propaganda.

Kabogo said that even if he had links with NASA it is not his rival’s business to question and criticise his political stand.

‘‘I want to warn my rival against dragging my name into the mud and let him know that this time round I will not fall for his propaganda tactics,’’ he said as quoted by the Standard.

Kabogo stated that he is focused on winning re-election and will not be distracted by people he said have no agenda for residents.

The governor urged residents to remain firm and shun politicians peddling lies.

On Monday, a section of Kiambu politicians led by Waititu claimed that Kabogo is silently working with NASA. Waititu alleged that Kabogo is sympathising with NASA after losing the Jubilee party ticket.

A section of Kiambu MCAs on Monday declared support for Raila Odinga’s presidential bid. On Tuesday Raila received a warm welcome from residents during his campaign tour of Kiambu where he urged residents to support his bid.

Raila explained to locals that he is not their enemy as their leaders have often portrayed.
