'I will deal with you!' Kindiki to Gachagua on Mbeere North by-election
The Mbeere North by-election campaigns intensified with Deputy President Kithure Kindiki and his predecessor Rigathi Gachagua clashing at separate venues over the development record in the Mount Kenya East region.
The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) candidate Leonard Wa Muthende and Newton Karish of Democratic Party (DP) will face off during next week's Parliamentary by-election that will pick Geoffrey Ruku’s successor following his nomination to Cabinet.

DP Kindiki campaigned for Wa Muthende in Kanyuambora, where he criticised his predecessor Gachagua for resorting to abuses instead of enumerating his development track record during his stint as Deputy President.
“Ati unanitusi, mimi ni rika yako? Wewe ni kingpin for who? Omba kura wacha kuja kunitusi nyumbani. You are a small timer, I will deal with you. I advised you before you were impeached, hukuniskiza. Your injuries are self-inflicted,” said Kindiki.
Responding to DP Kindiki, DCP party leader Gachagua, while campaigning for DP candidate Newton Karish at Kavengero and Ciangera, told his successor that Mbeere North residents have already made up their mind over their preferred candidate.
“Mimi nauliza Ruto na Kindiki, iko haja gani ya kumwaga nusu bilioni Mbeere na Wakenya wanateseka? Ati leo yuko Bunge, nyinyi Wambeere mtamsikia Kasongo kweli bungeni?” Posed Gachagua.
Wa Muthende and Karish will face off during next week's Parliamentary by-election that will pick Ruku’s successor.
