Kiambu Senator Karungo wa Thang’wa is under DCI investigation for disrupting a Limuru funeral linked to ex-DP Rigathi Gachagua. Discover how this incident reveals rising political tensions in Mount Kenya.
Kiambu Senator Karungo wa Thang’wa has been summoned by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) over allegations of sponsoring chaos at a funeral in Limuru, an event attended by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua. The incident, which saw disruptions reportedly involving hired goons, has sparked significant political tension in the region.
The altercation is believed to be part of ongoing political rivalries within the Mount Kenya region, particularly following Gachagua’s recent impeachment. Thang’wa, a staunch ally of the former deputy president, has been vocal in defending Gachagua, especially after claims that financial incentives were offered to sway votes during the impeachment process.
Additionally, Senator Thang’wa has been under scrutiny for his involvement in several controversial political maneuvers, including leading Senate inquiries into the cancellation of high-profile government deals with the Adani Group. These investigations have further fueled tensions, with Thang’wa positioning himself as a defender of public accountability.
