Nyanza county boss regrets firing salvos at big event

Did a top county official from Nyanza swallow his words before the powers-that-be during a recent big function?

Well, Corridors has learnt that the vocal regime critic known for his podium punches found himself on the back foot when he quietly approached the big man with a begging bowl just moments after firing salvos in the well-attended function.

Birds told this column that the county boss engaged the big man after the function, hoping to unlock the infrastructure pledges, but the big man, ever the master of political theatre, wasn't about to let bygones be bygones without a show of repentance.

Word has it that the county chief left with more humility than he arrived with.

Already, residents are worried that his combative politics may slow down development in the area with performance records also attracting questions. Looks like the lion may purr before it roars again.

The man was heard after having a bottle too many saying that his country would not endorse using the continental leadership "to settle domestic political bad manners."

The man from a country always in the news for bad reasons claims that it was in the interest of his country to be double-faced, pretending publicly to support Nairobi but in the shadows, doing other things.

Has a well-known PS in a key docket been ordered by his new CS to tag along him in every meeting, something he did not do with previous heads of the docket?

Signals reaching corridors of power suggest that the technocrat was told by the new sheriff in town that their mode of work will change and that he will have to deputize him in every field tour he undertakes.

The PS, known for his close proximity to the centre of power, took the instruction with grace as the CS is equally close to the top man.

The man has been all over social media attacking the governor over alleged poor service delivery ignoring his own county.

Has he been hired by someone? Yes! Our mole whispers that he is being used by a powerful individual in government who eyes the particular gubernatorial seat.
