MERU GOVERNOR AND CHAIRMAN COG SAYS HE WILL DEFEND HIS SEAT ON A JUBILLEE PARTY TICKET



Meru Governor Peter Munya has said that he will not defend his seat on a Jubilee ticket saying the party already favours his rival, Senator Kiraitu Murungi.
Speaking during the 53 Madaraka Day celebrations at the Meru Polytechnic, Munya said that, though he still supports President Uhuru Kenyatta and Deputy President William Ruto in their reelection bid.
He also hit out at Kiraitu for allegedly running a smear campaign against him saying the Meru Senator has no capacity to lead the county.
Munya said that his re-election to chair the Council of Governors shows their confidence in him due to his dedication to the council adding that he intends to replicate the same to the county.
