There was a scuffle earlier today between Coast and Nairobi Jubilee leaders on who should take blame for the loss in Malindi.
Malindi North MP Gideon Mung’aro exchanged bitterly with Kabete MP Ferdinand Waititu as other leaders watched, awed by the turn of events. Waititu accused Mung’aro of lying to the President that Jubilee would win Malindi after they poached Philip Charo, a long time ODM operative whom voters rejected.
According to Waititu, Jubilee local businessman John Kariuki alias ‘Ngala’ was more popular than Charo but was overlooked to pick an ‘ODM man’ whom Jubilee supporters distrusted.
Mung’aro on the other hand accused Waititu of thinking Malindi is ‘Nyeri ndogo’. The exchanges almost degenerated into blows with the Lunga Lunga MP Khatib Mwashetani and Mung’aro bolting out of the meeting in protest.
Munga’ro later addressed a press conference accusing Mombasa Governor Hassan Joho and Kilifi’s Amason Kingi of rigging the election.
Gideon Mung’aro accused Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho and Kingi of intimidating IEBC officials and rigging the Malindi constituency election for the ODM Party.
In a press conference attended by Lunga Lunga Khatib Mwashetani and notably boycotted by mainstream Jubilee leaders, Mung’aro, who rebelled against ODM and has indicated he will defend his seat on a JAP ticket, claimed Joho and Kingi intimidated Jubilee voters, saying only the votes cast for the Jubilee candidate Philip Charo were genuine.
Mung’aro is under intense pressure to justify the usage of millions of shillings he was given to coordinate the Malindi polls and which he is alleged to have diverted to his own 2017 campaign kitty.
Even after massive rigging, vote buying and intimidation, Charo still trailed a formerly ‘weak’ ODM candidate Willy Mtengo who eventually emerged winner.

Mung’aro wastuha hala bila kuuza nyonga…. zhele zhako vizdaricha…. HAPA NI MTENGO, JOHO
NA KINGI TU!
Chris Maina says
John Kariuki was popular but the Mijikenda baboons brought us someone who has been climbing coconut trees all his life. Munga’ro was thinking about his race against Kingi and used our money.
Mr. President; tell Mungaro to give your money back!

Why should they fight? in every contest there must be a winner and a looser. In any case, it was voters decision and their wish should be respected. The president also know this but now the people around him compete to impress him to an extent of fighting in his presence and that’s why he doesn’t like visiting central kenya. He has no issues that you like creating and has friends from all walks of life. Politics come and go and in case you fight or insult your neighbour just coz of a passing cloud, you are left as enemies when the elected are together and when they come to shags you dont even get to know with their tinted cars. Uhuru will one day leave, how will you survive ? you need to learn to live and respect each and every person wheather big or small.

KALAMA says
Mungaro is a respected politician and anybody ignoring him is not upright minded. I know CORD has speculated a lot but for sure waititu and mungaro can not fight coz they are all grownups and politically mature. Mungaro is a man of his own unlike Kingi who is spoon feed. Cord can celebrate the win but also they should know the turnout was very low. We are left with only few months for kingi to prove that he is worth the praises he is awarded and for RAILA his chances are very limited basing on the voter turn out in his strong holds. It is always good to try than never, Mungaro tried and he have learnt his lesson what he has to do is reorganize himself and aim higher.

Mungaro was misdirected to join the wrong political affiliation.Ignorant enough Coastal residents have never any politician associating with a kikuyu.
Mungaro must be notified politicians who have tried to challenge Raila in Coast have always failed terribly.A few of them being Najib Balala,Danson Mungatana,Makwere etc!

The whole coastal region is corded,this should not warrant us to be called baboons.the voters were practicing their democtratic rights.if charo is a baboon, then why did you wasted the taxpayers money on him instead of a humanbeing?other Kenyans are watching your utterances plz watch your steps.

Somebody still thinking of mung’aro being viable in the political scene is lying to himself,the day he announced to have joined the JAP bandwagon is the day his fate was sealed as far as coastal politics are concerned, upende usipende hawezi on a kiti ya ubunge tena let alone ya u governor,, labda akajaribu kiambuu.That’s the bitter truth.

Kimutai have in mind that Charo is from malindi where he has many friends and relatives who can convince other people to favior him not because of jap. Remember not all 9 thousands who vote are for jap but include bribed one and huruma. central is for jap as coast is for cord.
Charo wanted to be popular and the only way was through jap ticket .
