Mutua summoned
His accusation comes a few months after he received summons to appear before the Senate Public Accounts and Investments Committee (PAIC) to answer to queries raised from the Auditor General’s report for the 2015/16, 2016/17 and 2017/18 financial years.
The committee went ahead and asked Inspector General of Police Hillary Mutyambai to arrest and present before it the Machakos Governor, for disobeying summons of the House.
Mutua later on responded, accusing the committee of intending to make him look bad to the public.
