CENTRAL IMENTI POLITICS:The Next MP
It is no doubt the political ground has shifted from under Mwiti Irea's feet, and unless he conducts himself in a different manner in 2016, his fate seems sealed.What awaits him at the ballot is what befell Kirugi Mukindia in 2007.The Mwiti of today is not the Mwiti I voted for among 16,604 other voters in Central Imenti.If I were him, I would report to work with the zeal and energy portrayed by Things fall Apart's Onkonkwo to salvage the situation.
For starters, Kirugi was a colorless MP who skipped Central Imenti for the entire lifetime of the 9th parliament earning the nickname Gatiria.This guy had the guts to postpone his homecoming celebration growing rumors he was unwell in spite of the fact that he was a frequent patron of Gipsy Bar at the heart of Westlands - our MPs have a thing with Westlands.In April 2004, he had to deny openly rumours he had fallen sick and died in South Africa.He would later show up on the ground after parliament was dissolved seeking re- election.At the ballot, he emerged a distant sixth.
Since then he has rarely appeared in public functions save for the burial of Senator Muthamia though he left unnoticed after addressing the mourners.In his remarks he quipped '' niatia atongeria ba Abothuguchi bakararire,kabaere arongo?"(what happened to Abothuguchi leaders,did they become all liars)
For an under-performer of Mukindia's magnitude to realize Abothuguchi is sinking should not only worry Mwiti but the residents at large -By https://web.facebook.com/Mutugiseth017
