Kiambu Governor, Ferdinand Waititu was on Sunday
heckled by Kiambu residents at Githurai 45, in the presence of Deputy President
William Ruto.
The two had come from ACK St. Martins church, Kahawa Wendani
where they worshiped in the company of MPs Simon Ng'ang'a King'ara(Ruiru), Kimani
Ichungwa(Kikuyu), Nixon Korir(Lang'ata) among others.
In a video, Waititu tries to address Githurai
residents, who in turn wave their hands in protest.
Every time he attempted to make his speech, the crowd
shouted, "Apana, apana, apana (no, no, no)" while waving their
hands.
Waititu is also under pressure to clear his name
with the Ethics and the Anti Corruption Commission(EACC) over corruption allegations.
At the time of publishing, it was still not clear why the
residents were protesting against him.
Earlier on, the first-term governor explained that
politicians should have reverence for the DP since he is a key pillar in the
Jubilee administration.
"We have to touch on politics when we are in church
because that is our work. We are not pastors.
"Our boss, the Deputy President is here. Therefore we
have to repent. The same way pastors repent to bishops, we repent when we see
Ruto," stated Waititu
