Kimani Ngunjiri MP Bahati has come out publicly to disown the washenzi movement. Was he up for some cheap attention?
His movement was short-lived bearing the vigour in which he criticized the President Uhuru Kenyatta on his development agenda.
In an interview with the star, Ngunjiri said;
“That was just a statement from boys having a talk. They made the T-shirts. We are past such movements and there’s no such formation.”
He added that, “I was not happy with [Uhuru’s] washenzi remarks. The environment where he made them was wanting … We felt betrayed.
We are demanding our rights in constituencies just like anyone else. When others demand, he doesn’t abuse them, but we who voted for him are abused, and that is not fair.
Projects are undertaken countrywide under CDF and devolution, but we are demanding a share of the national cake. In Bahati, I have no single tarmacked road. He promised me dams in 2013, nothing has been done … I know there are other priorities, but I am just airing my views so I can be remembered.”
But on the side side he has picked a fight with the Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga for his close his close relationship with the President.
He said the President has substituted his assistant with Nasa leader Raila Odinga, warning him that ‘people are watching’.
