Kalimoni ward MCA Joel Waichere has rubbished the Kabete MP Ferdinand Waititus’ desire to run for the gubernatorial seat come 2017 in what he terms as petty politics that has no grounds.
This comes after the Kabete MP Waititu announced his desire to be the next Kiambu governor in 2017 to lead the county against what he termed as corruption, embezzlement and lack of development in the county.
Waichere said that the fact that he has won immensely the Kabete seat doesn’t necessarily mean he can vie for governorship and leap frog Kiambu county governor William Kabogo.
Waichere expressed his concerns with the IEBC which allowed Waititu to run for the Member of Parliament seat despite his questionable integrity for holding a public office.
The legislator has revealed that he will stand by Kabogo to the very end and urged residents not to fall victims of petty politics which is driven by malicious intentions.
He said that Kabogo has proven his worth in Kiambu County and the development he is establishing is a real proof of a working leader citing the recent launching of multimillion water projects in the county.
The MCA said that the Waititu should check his integrity before running a campaign against the county governor in matter of corruption and embezzlement.
He revealed that he will mobilize the campaign against malicious leaders in the county who want to drag the county behind and his counterparts to come out handy and support Kabogo in his endeavors for he has fulfilled many that he had promised during his campaign.
He has however urged youths to keep their eyes open and fish out leaders who want to bring conflict within the county.
Waichere was speaking on Wednesday in Juja Farm where Kabogo is expected to donate seedlings and relief food to the residents.
