Mutua claims that a section of Jubilee leaders allied to Deputy President Dr William Ruto have been threatening him.
“I have been threatened by the following people; Dp William Ruto, Hon Aden Duale, Hon Kipchumba Murkomen,” revealed Mutua.
According to him, the National Assembly Majority leader told him that he had been attacking them over a long period of time and they are now set to deal with him.
The Machakos county boss said Duale warned him against attacking the DP.
“Duale said ‘you’ve been attacking us and we will deal with you. Ukigusa DP unagusa sisi’ (if you touch the DP it also affects us),” Mutua claimed.
According to the governor, Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Mr Murkomen asked Duale to step aside so that he can deal with the county boss.
“Murkomen said ‘Duale niachie I’ll deal with him’,” Mutua alleged in a presser on Monday morning.
Mutua further accused Duale of threatening to deal with over 50,000 members of the Kamba community who live in Garissa.
“Duale then said do you know there are more than 50k Kambas in Garissa and I can deal with them,” he cited.
Mutua says the DP warned him over what he alleged as continued attacks against him.
“We jamaa umekuwa ukinichapa sana. Ngoja utaona,” reads part of the statement recorded by Mutua.
He, however, vowed to remain unshaken on the matter, urging police to do their work.
He further urged Kenyans to put him in their daily prayers.
