Monday, November 21, 2022 –Mt Kenya politician Ngunjiri Wambugu has denied tweeting against Azimio la Umoja leaders.
Addressing the matter for the first time, Mr. Wambugu said he is not a Twitter man and that whosoever is running an pseudo account in his name to spread propaganda against his allies should now stop.
He added that the handle that has been running disparaging tweets against Martha Karua and Raila Odinga doesn’t belong to him.
The former Nyeri lawmaker therefore wondered why major media outlets were also relying on social media to write news.
“You didn’t see the tweet you are quoting is not in my name.
“These guys need to stop with these fake accounts. When I have something to say, I always say it; without help,” he stated.
The politician was reacting to the many posts on Twitter which claimed that the poor performance in Jubilee Party around their Mt Kenya Region was purely necessitated by brand Raila and his Orange Democratic Movement ODM Party.
The account further disparaged Ms Martha Karua indicating that she had underperformed by bringing very little votes from Mt Kenya.
“Supporting Raila Odinga cost Many eloquent Leaders from Mt Kenya their seats. With their weak running mate Martha Karua who couldn’t even bring 1,000 votes.
“We have no apology. No debt. We move on with President Ruto for two terms,” read part of the statement from the parody account that has since been flagged down.
Mr. Wambugu has, therefore, warned that whoever is associated with the malicious account should quickly stop because it may become costly very soon.
He therefore said he is busy attending to other business matters away from poisonous politics.
