President Uhuru Kenyatta has been an important factor in
restoring the relationship of Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru and Women
Representative Wangui Ngirici that was heading south.
The two entered into conflict after Waiguru won the just
concluded General Election to become one of the first female Governor elected
during the polls.
According to Ngirici, the former Devolution and Planning
Cabinet Secretary disrespected her by not inviting her to the inauguration
ceremony after the big win.
The Women Rep wondered why Waiguru could take such an action
yet she (Ngirici) funded her campaigns around the County.

However, the women decided to put aside their differences to
ensure that President Kenyatta wins in the upcoming fresh presidential
election.
In a report by the Nation, the two leaders met and
decided to work together to ensure all of Nyeri’s votes go to the Head of
State.
"We have set aside our differences and resolved to work
together to ensure that President Kenyatta bags all the votes from the region,” Waiguru
said.
"We have decided to unite so that we can mobilise all the 351,000 voters from the county to vote for President Kenyatta," Ngirici noted
The meeting was held at Roswam Hotel in
Kerugoya where the two shook hands on the matter.
Speaking to the press, Ngirici noted: "National
Super Alliance leaders are campaigning vigorously for their candidate Raila
Odinga but all is not well among Jubilee leaders. That is why we have decided
to come together to support the President”.
