Augustus Kyalo Muli Recently gave a press conference where he urged the Governor and Speaker of Kitui to resign if they were not able to work quickly and effectively for the benefit of Kitui people.
His call was based on the whereas most Counties had already set up their governments and were already working for their people, Kitui County had nothing to show, six months after last year’s General elections.
Kyalo received huge outburst by Gov Malombe and Speaker Kinengo’s loyalists who criticised him for attacking the Governor and others suggested that he was financing certain MCAs to impeach Speaker Kinengo.
“what surprised me most was when a certain section of Governor Malombe’s loyalists started saying that I am former Governor Ngilu’s project hell bent on down- playing Governor Malombe’s work. I am nobody’s project. I am myself and represent my own views and aspirations,” Kyalo Said.
Speaking Exclusively with Hopkin Reporter, the Dubai based Kenyan businessman stated that during Ngilu’s term as Governor, the GCP for Kitui County grew from kshs 87 Billion (2018) to kshs 109 Billion (2021), a difference of kshs 22 billion, (double that of Governor Malombe), despite the Covid 19 menace and the huge obstructions by Ngilu’s opponents especially in the County Assembly.
“Kitui County is a dry county that cannot sustain itself With huge deposits of minerals scattered across our County, Kitui is still one of the poorest counties in Kenya and what excuse do our leaders give We need to agree on compensation We need to lay down structures, we need to engage more What they are not telling us want to know what is on the table for them.
I call on all Kitui people, let us face these leaders and shame them for their selfishness let us know these leaders by name and let’s not elect them to any post in the future If a Governor or Speaker doesn’t perform, let’s impeach them, if an MCA or MP doesn’t perform, let’s recall them.
Let us not be held prisoners by our own leaders they are the enemies of Kitui, and we know them by name and we will name them individually,”. He Concluded.
THE END///
