A section of politicians from Meru County have pleaded with President William Ruto not to sack Water Cabinet Secretary Eric Muugaa.
This comes amid fears of another looming cabinet reshuffle which might affect Muuga as political titans lobby for positions.
In the region, recent dalliances and a meeting between the president and veteran politician Kiraitu Murungi have sparked fears the youngest CS could be on his way out of the cabinet to create space for others.
Igembe South MP John Paul Mwirigi and nominated MCA Benson Kiriinya claimed some leaders are salivating for Mugaa's seat.
