WRANGLES HIT UDA

Embu County Governor and United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Chairperson Cecily Mbarire has issued a stern warning to certain government officials plotting against her. The governor claimed that she is  aware of government official travelling from Nairobi to Embu to undermine her governance in collusion with local leaders.

Mbarire said that she had remained loyal to UDA and President William Ruto even during the turbulent campaign period ahead of the hotly contest 2022 General Elections.  Mbarire warned the unnamed officials to stop undermining her leadership, saying she is not afraid to expose them if the intimidation persisted. 

She further emphasized her mandate as an elected leader, reminding the officials that she deserved the same respect she accorded them, urging the government to handle internal disagreements with decorum, calling for dialogue instead of backroom discussions. This comes a few months after Deputy President Kithure Kindiki hinted at plans to kick out Mbarire as the party chairperson.
