Pauline Njoroge hits back at claims she is carrying Uhuru’s money for Linda Mwananchi
Njoroge questioned why, if the claims were true, the government had not used its access to State machinery to establish whether she was in possession of funds allegedly being used to bankroll the movement.
Nairobi, Kenya - Political strategist Pauline Njoroge has refuted allegations that she is receiving funds from former President Uhuru Kenyatta to support the Linda Mwananchi movement. Njoroge challenged government-aligned politicians to provide proof of the alleged financial support, questioning why the government hasn't seized the funds if they truly believed they were being used to fund the movement.
In response to President William Ruto's recent criticism of Linda Mwananchi, Njoroge asked why the government hadn't taken action if they believed the claims to be true. The dispute over the movement's funding has been a long-standing issue in political exchanges involving Linda Mwananchi. Njoroge, who is connected to the movement, previously dismissed the allegations of allegedly receiving funds from Uhuru as political propaganda meant to harm the movement's reputation.
The movement's financial dealings have also been taken to court, with a constitutional petition filed at the High Court seeking disclosure of money contributed by the public, including the funds collected through M-Pesa Paybill number 3033049.
