Waititu defeated Kabogo in the controversial Jubilee nominations ahead of the 2017 elections. The former governor has severally accused Deputy President William Ruto of having a hand in his ouster. There was a lot of propaganda ahead of the nomination vote with claims that Kabogo had insulted women’s underwear. Most Kiambu voters voted Waititu not because he was competent but to punish Kabogo.
Despite losing the Jubilee Primaries, Kabogo still vied as an independent candidate but lost to Waititu again. Before the elections, Kabogo had warned the people of Kiambu that Waititu was only interested in their money. Perhaps these are the consequences he is referring to in his post.
Waititu and his wife Susan Wangari are facing corruption charges in court. They are accused of defrauding the County Government of Kiambu of more than Ksh 500m in the award of a tender.
