DAILY POST: Shock on KIBWANA as his attempts to oust KALONZO backfire badly-See what happened to him and his supporters at a funeral on Saturday News 02:16

Monday January 14, 2019-The growing rift between Wiper Party Leader, Kalonzo Musyoka, and Makueni Governor, Kivutha Kibwana, played out during the burial of former nominated Councillor Agnes Musili's son in Kinyambu, Thange Ward in Kibwezi East Constituency.

This is after the current and former MCAs ejected Prof. Kibwana’s supporters from the funeral, accusing Kibwana of leading a rebellion against the former Vice President. Trouble started after former Kibwana's Chief Officer for Devolution, Musyoka Kivungi, stood to respond to calls by Kamba clan elders to the Governor to stop attacks towards Kalonzo. The elders had warned Kibwana against derailing Kalonzo’s Presidential bid.  “Let him not keep on attacking Kalonzo on grounds of his performance, Kalonzo has no kitty for development.”
“Let the three Governors work for the people, they have our taxes,” the elders had said. But Kivungi’s defence of Kibwana infuriated the MCAs and the elders who literally hounded him and his people out of the funeral. Speaking following the drama that was witnessed, the County Wiper Chair, Francis Mutuku, said any call for fresh leadership in Ukambani on the pretext of developing the region was not genuine. “If there is a sin that will not be forgiven, it is the one committed towards Kalonzo Musyoka.” “We will support him since he is a step away from Presidency,” said Mutuku.
