Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua on Monday launched an attack on his main rival Wavinya Ndeti for allegedly sabotaging county government work.
Through a facebook post, Mutua claimed that he had established the Wiper candidate has been sponsoring county employees to sabotage the garbage collection program in the county and even organizing for lorries of garbage from Nairobi county to be coming to dump garbage in Machakos county.
He made the allegations after leading a massive countywide cleaning exercise to clear garbage that has suddenly, three months to the election, creeped up in the county.
He rebuked Ndeti for the alleged incident.
"Shame on you Wavinya Ndeti for endangering the health and lives of our residents and our children. Shame on you!," said Mutua.
He said that Machakos has been the cleanest county and it was odd for garbage to creep us just days to the election.
"All these is being done so that I can look inefficient and to manufacture propaganda. It does not make sense that for four years Machakos has been the cleanest county in Kenya and all of a sudden a few months to the elections I am unable to collect garbage," he said.
Mutua will be defending his seat on a Maendeleo Chap Chap ticket.
