At the opportune time, we must sit down and support one of us. Those are walking parallel must be talked to and to protect ourselves,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Maangi challenged the CS to lead the way in guiding and protecting the community. \u201cOur culture doesn\u2019t allow us to undermine those that have been given the mantle to lead,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>A close ally to Deputy President William Ruto, Maangi changed his stand by declaring his support for the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) at a time that DP allies have hinged on the disapproval side.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe report is largely good for the country. It can never be perfect but we have a way to sit and move the country forward. The 35 per cent revenue allocation to Counties is an actualisation of the principle \u2018funds will follow functions\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Matiang\u2019i supported the gesture by the Deputy Governor arguing that all the new-found relationship will help the government to deliver to the people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet us support the Government and work together for the benefit of our people. Am glad the Maangi has decided to work with us. Governor Ongwae has shown us the direction, let us support him and as well support President Uhuru Kenyatta\u2019s Government,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Both Mochache and Ongwae said there the country was moving the right direction even as they persuaded members of the Kisii community to support both the county and national government in achieving the development agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Maangi has been drumming up support for DP Ruto\u2019s 2022 presidential bid. His pledge to support the CS comes barely three weeks after his security detail was withdrawn. The Deputy Governor had called on Matiang\u2019i to ensure he is part of the progressive voices that stand and defend the constitution.<\/p>\n<p>He said it is getting worrisome that the country is reaching a level where some political leaders have to be denied privileges like security at the whim of some state executives.<\/p>\n<p>Security bosses in the country have been adamant to comment on the arrest and interdiction of two government officials\u2014 an assistant chief and a security officer who had been attached to Maangi.<\/p>\n<p>County Police Commander Jebel Munene and his Critical Infrastructure Protection Unit (CIPU) counterpart have not said a word.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author:\u00a0ERICK ABUGA AfricaPress-Kenya: Kisii Deputy Governor Joash Maangi has closed ranks with Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Coordination Dr Fred Matiangi to help him galvanise support in the region.
