Coming at the back of his bitter fight with Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Peter Munya who recently accused him of being ungrateful to the head of state, Mwirigi noted he will no longer bear the blackmail from the CS.
"If at all CS Munya is speaking for the president,(since he has done this repeatedly on different occasions), I may, for the sake of my peace of mind and independence consider returning the gift. I will not bear the blackmail by the CS anymore," he said.
"I am much humbled now as I was then. Secondly, I wish to appreciate the president for gifting me wholeheartedly without expecting anything in return," he said.
I have never insulted or disrespected the president in any way and I am not planning to do so at any time. But note, my allegiance to His Excellency DP William Ruto will not change at all," he added.
Terming CS Munya’s utterances as intimidations, the MP, who is seeking to defend his seat on a UDA ticket, said he is considering returning the gift, for the sake of his peace of mind.
“If at all CS Munya is speaking for the president,(since he as done this repeatedly in different occasions), I may, for the sake of my peace of mind and independence consider returning the gift. I will not bear the blackmail by the CS anymore. And, If the attacks are an orchestrated plan to co-erce me to change my decision, well it will be an exercise in futility,” he added.
