Governor Mutahi Kahiga appreciates President Ruto after visiting Nyeri
Governor Mutahi Kahiga has expressed his appreciation to President William Ruto after visiting Nyeri County.
Speaking on Tuesday, April 1, Kahiga said that Nyeri residents deserve a fair share of government projects, having overwhelmingly voted for the government in the 2022 General Elections.
He dismissed any opposition to Ruto’s visit to the region, stating that his presence was crucial in driving development initiatives.
“The President should not be told not to come to Nyeri; we want him to come again and again to bring us development. We are the ones who voted for this government and we deserve development,” he said.
This comes about two months after Kahiga expressed discontent over Deputy President Kithure Kindiki’s visit to Nyeri County without informing his office.
Speaking on Wednesday, February 5, Kahiga raised concerns about the lack of communication and coordination from the DP’s office, calling it disrespectful.

He stated that he was completely unaware of the purpose of Kindiki’s visit, and wondered whether his presence was expected at any events.
1“The other day I saw the deputy president had visited Nyeri. I don’t understand why some people just want wrangles for nothing. The Governor’s office represents the interests of the people.
“When a visitor of such status is visiting, we are given a notice that the deputy president is coming. However, in this case, we were not notified. We just had that he was in the county and we didn’t know if we were supposed to be there or not. Is that right?” He asked.
Kahiga stressed the importance of mutual respect between the national and county governments, citing that both should work in harmony for the benefit of the people.
“Offices should respect each other. When they invite me for meetings in Nairobi, I go. Both the National and County governments are supposed to work together,” he added.
