Machakos Deputy Governor Francis Mwangangi called on Wiper Patriotic Front leader Kalonzo Musyoka to break ties with politicians lacking public support across Ukambani. The deputy governor delivered his remarks during worship at Calvary Christian Church in Mutituni, Machakos County. Mwangangi criticized certain leaders for exploiting their relationship with Kalonzo to secure elected positions before neglecting regional development priorities. He pointed out how these same politicians remained highly visible during campaign periods but disappeared after winning office. The deputy governor questioned their absence and expressed frustration with their broken promises to constituents.
Mwangangi directly addressed Kalonzo, who attended the service, advising against forcing unpopular candidates upon voters. He emphasized that public rejection of specific individuals signals underlying problems requiring community resolution. The deputy governor also condemned attempts to weaken Wiper through financial manipulation and voter bribery. He questioned whether residents had become vulnerable to monetary influence. United Opposition principals Rigathi Gachagua, Eugene Wamalwa, Justin Muturi, and several Wiper officials witnessed these statements.
