Wambola disclosed that both Kenya Kwanza Legislators and Azimio ones have unanimously signed the motion to impeach the first CS in the Kenya Kwanza administration in devoid of their political differences
“This document has signatures of 110 MPs from across political divide. Azimio and Kenya Kwanza have signed it because Mithika Linturi is spoiling the efforts by the President to revitalise agricultural sector which is the backbone of ouf kenya’s economy,” Wamboka stated
According to the legislator, President William Ruto is trying the best to heal tue sector but there are few members of his executive led by Mr Linturi who are hell bent to taint the current regime
“We lost hope with this Linturi when he sponsered a motion to oust former devolution minister Ann Waiguru over National Youth Service heist but he was bribed by the then executive and disappeared when the bill was about to be tabled.
He’s the same man full of corruption and has never changed. I was even wondering how would the President appoint him in a such serious docket that is relied upon by all farmers and Kenyans at large

“If you see a state officer who does not gather intelligence while addressing the public and instead issues contradictory statements like the ones he issued defending fake fertilizer, later to retract his statements after the truth were out, just know that such a leader is irresponsible and incompetent,” Korer observed She echoed Wamboka’s sentiments that Linturi lost trust with Kenyans when he hibernated at one of the hotels in Naivasha while former Speaker Justin Muturi was calling him to table his 2014 motion to remove Kirinyaga Governor Ann Waiguru who was Devolution CS by then
After disappearing when he was expected to lead the charge against Ms Waiguru, the former Meru Senator and Igembe South MP yet again was accused by Korer of dropping another Motion, in which he wanted the Government to kick out British nationals from Laikipia and Timau, and take over the land used by the British Army in Isiolo.
