Deputy President Kithure Kindiki is on an intensive campaign to quell the disputes that have arisen within the ruling party, United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
On Sunday, UDA Chairperson Cecily Mbarire claimed there was a plot to oust her, accusing senior government officials, whom she claimed are also orchestrating moves to undermine her leadership in Embu County. "You know I am the chairperson of the UDA Party, and if there is anyone who has suffered because of supporting the government, it is me," a livid Mbarire said during the 62nd Madaraka Day celebrations.
She went on to allege that the unnamed government officials are holding clandestine night meetings, travelling from Nairobi to Embu to further their plot in collusion with local leaders.
