Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka has been left with egg on his face after Machakos Deputy Governor Benard Kiala’ s daughter – Kathleen Nduku – was found by police on Thursday after missing for almost a week.
Her disappearance had sparked an uproar after Musyoka, over the weekend, linked Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua to the mysterious disappearance.
Musyoka claimed that Mutua had abducted the daughter to intimidate Kiala after declaring that he would vie for the Machakos Gubernatorial seat in 2017 Elections.“Kama huyo msichana hatapatikana akiwa hai…Governor wa Machakos na wenzake lazima watatoa taarifa waeleze mtoto ameuawaa na nani,” Musyoka said.
Loosely translated: “If that girl is not found alive…Machakos Governor and his colleagues must explain to us who killed the girl.”
However, after investigations, Nduku was traced to her boyfriend’s house in Mwiki, Kasarani on Thursday where they were picked up by police.
Nairobi County Commander Japheth Koome revealed that after grilling Nduku and the boyfriend, Kiala’s daughter revealed that she had gone to visit the boyfriend at her own volition.
Nduku’s story contradicted Kalonzo’s claims that she had been kidnapped and that the abductors demanded the father to drop his interest for the Machakos Governorship.
Wiper plans to sponsor Kiala to contest for the Machakos Governor’s seat after falling out with Mutua, who will defend his seat on a Maendeleo Chap Chap ticket.
