Muranga residents have been having speculations on who Muranga Governor,Mwangi wa Iria would appoint as his running mate in the upcoming General elections.
This was after Wa Iria's Deputy Gakure Monyo turned his back from Governor Mwangi wa Iria and publicly started talking Ill of his boss', administration and offering to support Kigumo Mp Jamleck Kamau who would later lost to the incumbent.
Much have been speculated as to who would deputise Wa Iria some residents suggesting that his deputy would either come from Kigumo, Kandara and Maragua since Gatanga had produced Gakure.
According to Credible sources, Wa Iria will be selecting his deputy from Kandara following his promise that he would reward the Constituency that would massively nominate him in the Jubilee party primaries. Though he commanded all the South Constituencies apart from Gatanga, he beat all odds and emerged victorious in Kandara constituency where the area Mp and Kigumo Mp had joined efforts to lure voters to nominate the duo.
Our mole within the County Government has disclosed that Wa Iria has settled on Maina Kamau,a former Kandara legislator who was trounced by The Iron last Alice Muthoni Wahome.
Political experts argue that Wa Iria would want a deputy who is politically quiet, that does not have vast political connections and who would be submissive to him, a Deputy who would not have future gubernatorial ambitions something that would prevent him from proving difficult to Wa Iria.
Coincidentally all the descriptions fit Kamau who happens to come from Kandara.
WHO IS MAINA KAMAU?
James Maina Kamau was Member of Parliament representing Kandara Constituency elected through PNU ticket in 2007 to 2013 when he lost to Alice Muthoni Wahome.
He was Vice Chair of Departmental Committee on Energy, Communications and Information a very powerful committee between 2008 and 2012.
He was also Member of Joint Committee on Parliamentary Broadcasting and Library between 2008 and 2012
Howevee some quotas believe that Maina is not Wa Iria's best match. They argue Kamau was rejected by Kandarians and therefore he should be considered in the position.
Others who have been speculated to deputise Wa Iria are Gaichanjiru Mca Bernard Wanyoike who lost in Jubilee primaries. Wanyoike is a member of a strong Committee in Muranga County Assembly, A member of the Speaker's panel. Mr. Kahenya a tycoon business man in Kandara and Mr. Munyua who is Kigumo's Subcounty Administrator.
