On Tuesday, the same MCAs allied to the embattled Speaker convened a malicious press briefing to spread half-baked propaganda aimed at tainting Governor Wavinya Ndeti\u2019s administration. It is now feared that the error was not accidental but orchestrated by officers within the assembly, working hand in glove with Kiusya and her lazy propagandists, to whip up unwarranted public anger against a governor who has consistently been on the frontline of the anti-corruption fight. Leaked conversations have previously exposed how Kiusya\u2019s inner circle plotted smear campaigns to undermine Governor Wavinya\u2019s credibility \u2014 a plot that has once again blown up in their faces.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4575\" src=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1758563089197-1-300x259.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1758563089197-1-300x259.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kambalandtimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1758563089197-1.jpg 543w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><em>Picture: Embattled speaker Anne Kiusya<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Machakos Deputy Speaker Stephen Mwanthi has strongly condemned the deceitful maneuvers by Kiusya\u2019s faction, calling the episode \u201ca well-coordinated but poorly executed propaganda war.\u201d He expressed disbelief that a supposedly competent committee could capture erroneous data while the official executive records were accurate and clear.
