DAILY POST: I was not abusing UHURU – I was abusing WAITITU and WAMUCHOMBA because they are fools and they have failed Kiambu 07:02 Saturday January 5, 2019-Gatundu South MP, Moses Kuria has dismissed claims that he abused President Uhuru Kenyatta during his New Year Eve‘s message at Thika Stadium on Tuesday.
Speaking in Kimunyu shopping Centre on Friday, Kuria said his sentiments were directed at Governor Ferdinand Waititu and Kiambu Women Representative Gathoni wa Muchomba whom he accused of orchestrating slow development in the county. He accused the two of competing over the rehabilitation of alcoholics which he termed as shameful and petty. “When leadership in Nyeri are inviting the President to commission markets, an airstrip and a road, the leadership of Kiambu are directing the president to issue certificates to drunkards, its a shame," he said. The outspoken MP said his attacks on the duo were misconstrued by people who want to bring enmity between him and the president. Kuria said his long-standing working relationship with the president speaks for itself. "We have worked together every step of the way almost on a daily basis from 2007 up to the present day and I have never disrespected the President," he said.
