Senator Maina said the County Government was obsessed with construction of mega projects which he believed were meant to create looting opportunities.
"We have seen this in Nyeri when people are being hard pressed by coronavirus. From Karatina to Othaya and Nyeri town, the only thing that the county government has done is to build cabro and you there are no thorns there so the reason they want to build is to create opportunities to loot. Its painful."
"It cannot be that someone who we know he could not afford toothpaste to maintain healthy teeth. But when he was given the seat under special circumstances, he is building big homes and lighting them so that even the garden flowers have light at night. Our people are feeling a lot of pain when they see convoys that are always going round doing nothing," Senator Maina.
