Murang’a Woman Representative Betty Maina has denied claims by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua that she is using the Directorate of Communication and Publicity (DCP) to blackmail President William Ruto. Maina called the allegations “cheap propaganda,” emphasizing her commitment to transparency and integrity in her role.
The dispute emerged after Gachagua accused Maina of undermining Ruto’s administration through alleged pressure tactics. Maina responded by asserting that the claims were unfounded and aimed at discrediting her work. She reiterated her support for the government’s communication strategies and stressed that her actions were in line with public interest.
Sources indicate that the tension between Maina and Gachagua has intensified in recent weeks, with both parties exchanging public statements. While Gachagua’s claims remain unproven, Maina’s rebuttal has drawn attention from political analysts and local media. (tuko.co.ke)
