Ekerenyo ward MCA Thaddeus Nyabaro has claimed that Nyamira Governor John Nyagarama has been giving road tenders to his relatives and close friends.
The ward representative said the contractor currently working on the Magonga junction – Omorara primary school road must be stopped because the tender was awarded without following the legal procedures.
Nyabaro protested that the contractor has laid culverts on the road facing to the doors to the houses of the poor citizens in the area.
“We can’t allow Nyagarama to consider his relatives to work on our roads. I wish to ask Nyamira County MCAs to open up their eyes and stop Nyagarama from running the county as his own village kiosk and ensure tenders are awarded to qualified people who are not foreigners as well,” he said.
The MCA stated that in his ward he will give tenders to locals to boost the lifestyles of his people.
“Any tender in Ekerenyo ward will be given to locals. No foreigner will be brought by Governor Nyagarama to do any road works in my ward the same way he is doing in other wards,” he stated.
