Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi has said his life is in danger.
The governor on Sunday, December 18 asked congregants in Gatundu South, Ndarugo, to pray for him.
”All I want to ask for is prayers from you so that I’m strong physically and mentally so that I can continue working.” The governor said.
Moreover, governor Wamatangi without mentioning names stated that he has received numerous threats from people who have asked him to be careful lest he loses his head.
”I have been told to take care, that I will lose my head, but I tell them that my head has stayed where it is because of God,” he said.
Likewise, the governor said they threatened to create a huge scandal and blame it on him. However, Wamatangi noted that he is not worried as God is with him.
”I have been beaten before, now nothing really worries me, no one can frighten me, God made me a Senator… and then God used you to make me a governor and it is not in vain,” he added.
Nonetheless, Wamatangi during his address promised to root out corruption in the county and work closely with MPs and MCAs to carry out his mandate.

According to him, Kiambu County will be afflicted by corruption if something is not done.
Furthermore, governor Wamatangi mentioned the recent visit of American Billionaire Bill Gates, saying the philanthropist came to Nairobi and then toured Makueni County, ignoring nearby Kiambu County.
”He came here with billions and made a stopover in Nairobi, then headed to Makueni and after that went to Kisumu… it is because these investors have been advised on the best counties where their investment will not be misused or wasted,’ he added.
