Tharaka Nithi Governor Muthomi Njuki has threatened to break political ties withPresident Uhuru Kenyatta and the Jubilee party.
According to the county boss, he will take the move if President Uhuru Kenyatta will fail to appoint National Museums boss Mzalendo Kibunjia as a Principal Secretary.
Njuki has warned that his people are keenly watching.
"I am the voice of the people of Tharaka Nithi and I have been seeing the seats beingdistributed as we are left out. Let the President and his deputy be told that we are watching. We won't threatenthem but they should know what our position is so that there is no confusion in 2022," said Njuki.
He stated that should all the PS positions be filled without considering Kibunja, DP William Ruto will not be welcome to the county in 2022.
"Tharaka Nithi, we work so hard and vote so hard, 72% for these national leaders but when they make appointments we areforgotten. We want to be shown why should continue to vote for them. We have our people who are very qualified. We have Director Mzalendo Kibunjia. There isn't a PS position in this countrywhere Kibunjia cannot fit. He is well educated and has more expertise than many others. We will not accept any excuse thatthere is no one qualified for the position," he added.
