Forgive us, Tolgos goes on his knees before Kenyatta

Four ELgeyo-Marakwet members of parliaments threatened President Uhuru Kenyatta if he stops the construction of Kimwarer dam and Arror dam project amidst Ksh 21 billion scandal.

However, Governor Alex Tolgos has apologised to the President for the sentiments the MP made concerning the controversial Arror and Kimwarer dam projects.

On Saturday, four Elgeyo-Marakwet members of parliament threatened protests should the Sh21 billion dam projects be stopped in the wake of corruption allegations in the tendering process.

The investigations have seen the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) question Treasury Cabinet Secretary Henry Rotich.

The MPs – Daniel Rono (Keiyo South), Kangogo Bowen (Marakwet East), William Kisang (Marakwet West) and Elgeyo-Marakwet Woman Representative Jane Kiptoo – warned that they would organise demonstrations against the government. 

“On behalf of the people of Elgeyo-Marakwet, we sincerely apologise to the head of State over political utterances by four MPs and a handful of MCAs, purporting to be speaking on behalf of the people on the ongoing investigations,” Tolgos said.

The politics in the phantom controversial dam has rose with every politician trying to ‘sanitise’ theirselves through PR in ‘fighting’ corruption.
