Homa Bay Woman Representative Gladys Wanga has dared Deputy President William Ruto to come out in open and disown corrupt governors if he believes that he’s clean.
On Sunday, DP Ruto defended Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu from alleged misuse of taxpayers money, insisting that the county budget was erroneously quoted.
“Do not get worried about the audit query on South Sudan and former Presidents since we will answer that. Just answer queries touching on Kiambu, which you will be asked by the residents and other people” said Ruto.
In the 2018/19 budget, Auditor General noticed that the county had spent billions in functions such as peace process in South Sudan, Cabinet meetings and free education which belong to the national government.
But Mrs Wanga now claims the DP is harboring corruption for his own selfish gains, adding that he could be a chief beneficiary. At Magunga market on Monday, Wanga insisted that the DP should come out clean.
“DP William Ruto should be sincere with us. How come all corrupt governors run to him when they are under siege? The other day we saw him with Samburu Governor Moses Kasaine, we have seen him with our neighbour Obado and now Waititu,” wondered Wanga.
She added: “If he’s not corrupt, let him come out and disown them. Birds of the same feathers flock together. He knows something and he’s sabotaging President Uhuru Kenyatta’s fight against corruption. We must all support this war.”
Governor Kasaine was arrested and charged with several corruption counts last month. He was released on Sh10 cash bail. For Obado, he’s accused of laundering over Sh2 billion from the county government.
But on Tuesday, Governors dismissed the shocking expenditures in Auditor General Edward Ouko’s report, arguing that the treasury had wrongfully configured IFMIS which they say only reads national government expenditure.

GLADYS WANGA IS ONE OF THOSE INCOMPETENT MPs who do not speak for her constituents; but are demanding over 200,000 shilling pay raise to be extracted from poor Kenyan taxpayers! IF THAT IS NOT A FORM OF CORRUPTION, NOBODY KNOWS WHAT CORRUPTION IS?
GLADYS WANGA MUST START EXAMINING THOSE GOVERNORS CLOSE TO HER (IN HOMA BAY, RONGO, SIAYA, KISUMU) INSTEAD OF TOYING AROUND WITH EMOTIONS OF POOR CITIZENS !!
HOW MUCH DID SHE PAY TO BE INDUCTED INTO ODM MEMBERSHIP? THIS TOO IS CORRUPTION!

What will Uhuru tell Kenya this time? He was against Waititu supporting Ruto and now seems like Ruto said it well by telling the national government to own the mistake and not blame the county governments. Senate led by interested party of senators against Ruto support team were biased. Uhuru should resign immediately for lack of showing leadership skills. Uhuru is a drunken who should not lead a country. Kenya should sell all his properties to repay what we have lost since his coming to power.
