Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi now says he will work with members of the county assembly who want to work for their people.
Speaking on Tuesday, August 29, the Kiambu Governor urged MCAs who are after helping their electorate to work together with him.
“Mimi nimekubali kufanya kazi na viongozi wenye wanataka kufanya kazi. Kama ni hawa MCA wetu ama ule mtu mwenye roho yake iko na watu wake na anajua ya kwamba haja yake ni kuasaidia wananchi akuje tufanya kazi.
“Yule mtu mwenye hajajitambua bado anataka kuendelea na siasa wacha aendelee tutakuna nay yeye huko mbele wakati wa siasa ukifika,” said Wamatangi.
His remarks come after at least 37 Kiambu MCAs said they would not entertain the governor's style of leadership.

Addressing the press on Monday, the MCAs accused the governor of working in isolation without involving them in the day-to-day running of the county.
"We are sending a warning to Governor Wamatangi and in case he doesn't change, we will deal with him as the law stipulates," said Kimabu County Assembly Majority leader Paul Macharia Wambui.
Karuri MCA Peter Njoroge Wainaina on his part said Wamatangi has not been using the county resources properly adding that the governor has paid more attention to working with Wamatangi foundation officials and ignoring MCAs.
"We have resolved that we won't allow Wamatangi to derail development, Wamatangi must constitute the government fully, or else we take the law. We are not limited to impeachment and we won't allow Wamatangi to mismanage the County as we watch, “he said.
