Sunday, November 28, 2021 –Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru has accused Police of intimidating her ahead of Deputy President William Ruto Sunday tour in Kirinyaga County.
Through her social media pages, the governor on Sunday claimed that her supporters had been summoned by area police for interrogation.
She had already asked her supporters’ to come out in droves to welcome DP William Ruto for their daylong political functions.
“The DCIO Kianyaga is now summoning my team threatening to arrest them before DP William Ruto’s visit to Kirinyaga. Please stop intimidating my team using security forces,” she stated on Sunday November 28.
Ruto will be attending a church service at the ACK Kianyaga after which he will hold political rallies in Kirinyaga, Kutus and Kerugoya towns respectively.
Since joining William Ruto’s hustlers camp, Waiguru has ever accused authorities of undermining her democratic right particularly when, in October this year, offices from the Ethics and Anti-corruption Commission EACC raided her home in search of crucial documents linking her to graft.
She has also caused ripples in UDA Party after she joined the camp in which her fierce rival Purity Ngirici had popularized around Kirinyaga.
Since Waiguru’s defection, MP Ngirici revealed that her relationship with the Deputy President was now hanging on a peg.
She has even openly regretted using her millions to finance UDA’s activities around Mt Kenya Region with hopes that she could be accorded a direct ticket for governorship in 2022.
