Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri said though they support the friendship between Raila and Uhuru, they are convinced that the move has done more harm to Jubilee than expected.
“We know Raila is a man of confusion. It is his history that everywhere he goes confusion must erupt and that is what has just happened to us. If we continue with such we are likely going to see people go back to their tribal lines and in the end, his Agenda 4 will collapse,” he said.
Speaking to the Star, Ngunjiri denied claims that he has been bribed by DP William Ruto to criticise President Uhuru Kenyatta’s development record in Central region.
Ngunjiri on Thursday said those making such allegations are political orphans and are using the current turbulence in Jubilee Party to make a political comeback.
He was referring to Narc-Kenya Martha Karua and former Gatanga MP Peter Kenneth who on Wednesday hit at the MP saying he was being sponsored to blackmail Uhuru.
“My age and principles do not allow me to be bribed. I’m just waiting to go to heaven although not that quickly and thus the assertions that I have been bribed hold no water. I’m only speaking what my people want me to,” Ngunjiri said on Thursday during an interview at the Star offices in Nairobi.
Both Karua and Kenneth unsuccessfully contested for the Kirinyaga and Nairobi governor’s seat but lost to Anne Waiguru and Mike Sonko respectively.
Ngunjiri and Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria have been accusing the President of neglecting the Central region and concentrating on opposition strongholds especially after the Handshake.
