Several Machakos MCAs have condemned Governor Alfred Mutua for allegedly attacking Deputy President William Ruto.
Led by Kangundo Central MCA Moses Musyoka, they said Mutua should stop dragging Ruto into county politics.
“We condemn in the strongest terms possible the recent unwarranted and misdirected attacks by Mutua against MCAs and Ruto, which the "former" Governor has been orchestrating directly, by innuendos or through proxies," Musyoka said in a statement issued at the assembly’s premises in Machakos town on Monday.
"The former Governor has made wild allegations that MCAs have received what he calls blood money from the Deputy President purporting to frustrate his 2022 bid for the presidency."
Musyoka said those are "totally unfounded allegations which should be treated and dismissed with the contempt they deserve".
He said the allegations were aimed at diverting attention from Mutua's "gross failures and neglect" in the management of county affairs, faults which have caused it to lag behind in development.
“Let it be known to the former Governor that we are persons of integrity, indeed strong Christians devoted to serving our county with the fear of God. [Perhaps he is the one] living on what he calls blood money, whatever that means."
The MCA referred to Mutua as former Governor because the Court of Appeal nullified his election in the August 8, 2017 vote.
The appellate court set aside the judgement by the High court in the petition filed by Wiper's Wavinya Ndeti.
Justice Ouko said the election was not conducted fairly and directed the IEBC to conduct fresh polls.
However, Mutua through his press secretary Mutinda Mwanzia dismissed the MCA's claims stating that he had never mentioned Deputy President William Ruto's name.
Mutua said he was not fighting anyone but was committed to slaying the corruption dragon which he added should be declared a national disaster.

GOVERNOR KIRAITU MURUNGI RESPONDS MIGUNA MIGUNA. "H. E The Rt.Hon. Prime Minister Raila Amolo Odinga has been my friend since 1970. We are age mates and political comrades who both went to Parliament at the same time, in the same party called FORD-K. The Prime Minister met H.E Madam Ida Odinga, in March 1971 when Ida Odinga was a student of Bachelor of Education at the University of Nairobi, majoring in Geography. They dated for over one year, later on, engaged and wedded. The late Fidel Odinga was born in 1973, almost three years after both the Hon.Raila Odinga and Mama Ida had met, dated, got engaged and married. It's a desperate fallacy and a stupid lie, for Miguna Miguna who was only seven(7) years old when The Prime Minister and Mama Ida met, and merely ten (10) years old when the late Fidel Castro Macarius Odhiambo Odinga was born, to LIE to us that at the age of 7 years old, he had known who fathered who, let alone the Odingas. Miguna met the Odinga...
