Governor Njuki, MCA Kamunyu Clash in Marimanti Over World Bank Funded Roads, Tax Threats and Municipal Status Plans.
A heated political clash has erupted between Marimanti MCA Kennedy Kamunyu and Tharaka Nithi Governor Muthomi Njuki.
The confrontation occurred during the commissioning of tarmacking roads, modern street lights, and an ablution block in Marimanti town. While MCA Kamunyu thanked the national government and World Bank for financing the project, Governor Njuki countered by asserting that, "There is no elected leader called World Bank," insisting that the projects fall under his administration.
MCA Kamunyu openly challenged the governor, affirming that the people of Marimanti demand development. He warned that if there is no development, residents will withhold taxes. In response, Governor Njuki urged residents to pay taxes and pledged to continue with more development, including additional tarmacked streets, a new bus stop, and elevating Marimanti to a municipal status.
