Maitha\u2019s hot air motion, quickly collapsed when the majority of MCAs distanced themselves from it, dismissing it as a self-serving ploy. Reports suggest that his actions were influenced by Mavoko MP Patrick Makau, a controversial figure with ambitions for the Machakos gubernatorial seat in 2027. However, as soon as it became evident that his colleagues would not support him, Maitha seemingly resorted to desperate measures to avoid the backlash.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3186\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3186\" style=\"width: 244px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3186\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964721167-244x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"244\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964721167-244x300.jpg 244w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964721167.jpg 351w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 244px) 100vw, 244px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3186\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>Picture: Self Kidnapped MCA Dominic<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>His impeachment threat was first made public during an event hosted by Makau, a politician described as restless and anxious about his dimming prospects against the high-performing Governor Ndeti. Unable to build a credible case, Maitha\u2019s sudden disappearance has sparked widespread speculation, with many believing it to be a calculated attempt to smear the governor\u2019s reputation while drumming up sympathy for Makau. Kinanie MCA Kavyu, a known ally of Makau, fueled further suspicion when he claimed Maitha\u2019s absence was part of a larger scheme to manipulate public opinion against Ndeti. However, Machakos residents have largely dismissed these claims as baseless and politically motivated.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3187\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3187\" style=\"width: 173px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3187\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742913512975-173x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"173\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742913512975-173x300.jpg 173w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742913512975-592x1024.jpg 592w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742913512975-768x1329.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742913512975-888x1536.jpg 888w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742913512975.jpg 959w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 173px) 100vw, 173px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3187\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Picture : Kinanie MCA Mr kavyu<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In a move seen as sheer desperation, MP Patrick Makau took to Facebook on Wednesday 26th Morning, insinuating that Maitha\u2019s disappearance was orchestrated by Governor Ndeti. However, this tactic appears to have backfired, exposing Makau\u2019s struggle for political relevance. Critics argue that his attempts to manufacture controversy highlight his declining influence in Machakos politics. Residents have expressed frustration over his theatrics, accusing him of resorting to cheap propaganda instead of engaging in meaningful development initiatives. His antics, they say, only solidify the public\u2019s perception of him as a power-hungry opportunist rather than a leader committed to serving the people.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3188\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3188\" style=\"width: 297px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3188\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964693423-297x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"297\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964693423-297x300.jpg 297w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964693423-768x775.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/1742964693423.jpg 853w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 297px) 100vw, 297px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3188\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Picture: Power scavenger Patrick Makau<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Despite these political maneuvers, the people of Machakos have reaffirmed their support for Governor Wavinya Ndeti, dismissing Makau and his allies as enemies of progress.
