Abandoned Nyeri Town MP has been labeled a Raila Odinga project following his failed petition over removal of Chief Justice David Maraga.
On Friday, President Uhuru Kenyatta prevailed over the Jubilee MP to drop the petition after the opposition team came into the defense of the embattled Chief Justice.
And in defense of President Uhuru Kenyatta, whose open stunt at the CJ went viral, the Jubilee MPs have now shifted the goal post to the opposition.
“We know that Ngunjiri is a Raila project. He was in the forefront collecting signatures that indicted Uhuru at the ICC,” said Kitutu Chache North’s Jimmy Angwenyi.
“We want to assure the president that we shall work hard to ensure he scores in Gusii region. Those targeting Maraga were apologists of Odinga,” said Richard Tong’i of Nyaribari Chache.
Already, the defense of Maraga has taken a political dimension with opposition leader Raila Odinga accusing Uhuru of working in cohorts with Ngunjiri to frustrate the judiciary.
Currently, several protestors are still held in Nyamira and Keroka police cells for allegedly burning Uhuru’s effigy in Maraga’s defense.
