WHY JANET MBUGUA REJECTED MOSES KURIA’S OFFER TO BE KIAMBU DEPUTY GOVERNOR

Former Citizen TV news anchor Janet Mbugua has rejected MP Moses Kuria’s offer to have her serve as Kiambu Deputy Governor should he win the gubernatorial contest. In a Twitter post, Mbugua said, “Thanks @HonMoses_Kuria for considering me capable to serve Kiambu County as Dep Gov. Indeed, active engagement in politics isn’t for me at the moment. I remain available in support of quality service to the good people of Kiambu & all of Kenya, more so vulnerable women and girls.”

Kuria had taken to his social media pages on Thursday, March 24 to reveal that Mbugua had refused to deputise him. “I am shattered. After scoring the highest marks in the talent search for Kiambu Deputy Governor, Janet Mbugua will not be taking up the job due to unforeseen personal emergencies that she has to attend to in the immediate term.”

Adding, “My administration will definitely find a way to benefit from @OfficialJMbugua experience and capacity in the future. I feel the loss. Janet is a huge inspiration for the youth, for professionals, for women and for young mothers of this country.”
