By KITAVI MUTUAMore by this AuthorKitui Deputy Governor Penina Malonza is on the verge of setting a political precedent. In an interesting political twist Ms Malonza, the incumbent deputy governor, was named by Senator Musila as his running mate, two months ago, while still serving in office under incumbent Governor Julius Malombe of Wiper Party. CHANGEThe deputy governor has been campaigning hard to send her boss home and is likely to set a record of deputising two governors if Mr Musila beats Dr Malombe at the ballot. The deputy Governor said her boss should not be given a second term in office by Kitui voters because he had allegedly presided over “serious intra-marginalization” within the vast county. After their bitter political fallout, Governor Malombe picked a new running mate, a former primary school teacher and trade unionist Agnes Kambua Musee from Mwingi north.
