The rivalry between Wiper Democratic Movement leader Kalonzo Musyoka and Kitui Governor Charity Ngilu has reared its ugly head again, with allegations that the former vice-president is using the county assembly to sabotage Ms Ngilu’s administration.
Their rivalry played out at Kitui County Assembly, which is controlled by the majority Wiper MCAs.
Governor Ngilu’s six nominees to the Kitui County Public Service Board were rejected last week by the county assembly.
During Ms Ngilu's inauguration as governor in 2017, the Nasa co-principal did not mince his words, reminding her that she would head a county with majority Wiper MCAs, which will make her “life” difficult.
In the last general election, Ms Ngilu defeated Mr Julius Malombe, the Wiper candidate and a close ally of Mr Musyoka.
