Former Kiambu Governor William Kabogo, on the night of Sunday, February 2, finally lessened up and addressed his alleged hand in the impeachment of his successor Ferdinand Waititu.
Speaking during a live interview on K24 TV, the flashy politician disclosed that he played no role in the impeachment of the governor.
The former county boss had earlier vowed not to speak on the matter and even turned down numerous requests for interviews including from yours truly.
"None at all, I never speak about it. Actually this is the first time I am agreeing to speak Kiambu. I never speak Kiambu. I had no hand in it. I mean, I'm not in the Senate. The guy fixed himself," answered Kabogo when Punchline show host Anne Kiguta asked if he had a hand in the saga.
He went as far as to deny that he was acquainted with members of the county assembly of Kiambu who could have enabled him to pull off such a feat.
"Actually, I only know two MCAs. I have no connections at all with MCAs. I moved on and went out of my way to stay out of politics of Kiambu and I have decided to be that way," he added.
He further dished out pieces of advice to the incoming Governor Ndindi Nyoro who was sworn into the office on Friday, January 31.
"I do not know Nyoro very well but from his body language yesterday (Saturday, February 1), he needs to be very careful.
"It was too early to start shouting and throwing people out of meetings. I was looking at social media and I was seeing him in a helicopter arriving at BBI meeting and I am like, 'what? Day one?' How do you manage to pay for a helicopter, I hope it is not county funds," he advised.
The Senate on Wednesday, January 29 voted to impeach Waititu over allegations of corruption, gross misconduct and abuse of office.
They voted against Waititu on three charges; Violation of the Constitution of Kenya 2010, Crimes under the national Law and Abuse of office/ Gross Misconduct. The tallies for the three separate votes were 23 against 13, 28 against 11 and 27 against 11.
