The residents also claimed Mr Njuki and Chuka MP aspirant Patrick Munene were also meeting some presiding officers and clerks to plan on how to rig the primaries. “I have reliable information that MP Njuki is plotting to rig primaries using presiding officers and clerks and that is why he is meeting them at mid-night,” said Mr Miriti. DENIED CLAIMSContacted, Mr Njuki denied having ballot papers or meeting presiding officers but instead said he was meeting his supporters from Maara Constituency. “I have a meeting with 24 aged men from Maara Constituency who are helping me to pick my agents for the nomination exercise,” said MP Njuki. The lawmaker said his opponents had sensed defeat and are doing everything to taint his reputation ahead of the primaries.
