Anti-Uhuru schemers are cheap populists, say Central Kanu chiefs

CENTRAL Province Kanu leaders have warned Budalangi MP Ababu Namwamba against dragging the name of national chairman Uhuru Kenyatta in his “opulist politics agenda.” They said claims by the “self imposed leader of the official opposition” that he would marshal the support of fellow parliamentarians to censure Uhuru over nomination of councillors was misplaced.

In a statement read by Rironi chairman David Mbiyu Nga’ng’a yesterday, the officials from 29 constituencies said politicians scheming to tarnish the name of the Deputy Prime Minister were calling for chaos. Uhuru is also Gatundu South MP. They alleged that the MP was being used by senior politicians planning to gun for the presidency in 2012.

The leaders told Namwamba to keep off national politics and concentrate on delivering services to his constituents. They said Uhuru’s action was in good faith, adding that if the nomination of some of the councilors is revoked, their families and dependants will suffer.

They said the revocation would harm the political stature of Local Government minister Musalia Mudavadi because it would cast a shadow on the cohesion of the coalition government. “The alleged fight against corruption should not be used as a path of discreetly crucifying innocent people,” the statement read in part.

Mbiyu said although President Mwai Kibaki and Prime Minister Raila Odinga were determined to see the grand coalition government deliver pledges to Kenyans, some disgruntled elements were out to frustrate the goal. On Monday, a group of Central Kenya parliamentarians, among them Maragua’s Elias Mbau, George Thuo and Jamleck Kamau, also attacked the Budalangi legislator over the scheme to censure Uhuru.
