Kiagu MCA Simon Kiambi, from Meru County, has verbally tendered his resignation, citing his inability to fulfil the promises he made to the electorate over the constant bickering amongst leaders within the devolved unit. The MCA further asked Governor Mwangaza to proceed and forward the dissolution petition to President William Ruto if push comes to shove. The Kiagu MCA, who has supported Governor Mwangaza throughout her tribulations, remarked it was unfair for Meru residents to continue bearing the brunt of wrangles among their elected leaders. His sentiments come after a petition was launched in Meru County calling for the dissolution of the government, calls which Governor Mwangaza has supported. Meanwhile, amidst the adversity, Governor Mwangaza has remained defiant, even stating that she was ready to receive and forward the petition to President William Ruto.
