Residents of Kirinyaga County have voted out 14 out of their 20 MCAs during the repeat Jubilee nominations.

Those who  succeeded  to defend their positions come the August polls included the youthful Baragwe MCA David Mathenge, Kariti’s Joel  Wagura, John Gitari (Kangai) and his Inoe counterpart David Mwangi.

Others were Samuel Maina of Nyangati Ward and his Gathigiriri counterpart Joseph Mungai while the total number of aspirants in the County for this position was 200.

There was therefore an average of 20 aspirants for the now coveted position in the 20 Wards in this agricultural based economy County.

Among the 20 who lost in the nominations were the only two elected MCAs in the area Jenifer Wanjiru (Ngariama) and her Mukure counterpart Wachera Karienye.

The County has nine nominated MCA’s among them Catherine Wamaribe who tried her luck for Kanyekini Ward nominations but lost to little known Mwangi wa Ngiti.

Maribe earlier served as a nominated Civic Leader for the defunct Kerugoya –Kutus Municipal Council and had luck for a second time when she became a nominated MCA.

Also among the losers was another nominated MCA representing the Youth George Kagori who unsuccessfully failed to win the Inoe Ward nomination.

Others who lost were Kariuki Kiura (Njukiine), NJui Ndambiri (Kabare), John Waruri (Kanyekini) Jackson Kibanya (Inoe), Kinyua wa Wangui (Mutira) Murimi Jusuf of Kiangai

They also included Jenrao Njaamumo (Mutithi), Gudson Muchina (Tebere) Murimi wa Wairimu (Thiba) Kinyua Mutugi (Wamumu) and his Murinduko counterpart John Mwai.

 Except Waruri, Karienye and Jusuf, the rest were all new entrants into political leadership the three having served as civic leaders for the now defunct Kirinyaga County Council.

Mutugi is the Deputy Speaker in the first County Assembly while his boss Ann Wangechi Githinji has also lost her bid for the area Woman Representative to little known Purity Wangui.

Meanwhile, anxiety is looming in the  County over the credibility of the just concluded Jubilee nominations after the discovery of massive marked and unmarked ballot papers.

The photocopies of the gubernatorial position papers were found in various sections of the County especially in Mwea, Ndia and sections of Kutus town.

 The papers were discovered Wednesday morning some dumped along the road at Nyangati section of the busy Embu-Mwea highway.
