A change of guard has taken place in the leadership of TNA in Kirinyaga County.
Organising Secretary Francis Kinyua was replaced by a local tycoon, Andrew Ngirichi, during a hastily convened governing council held in Kutus town.
While reacting to the loss, Mr Kinyua dismissed reports that he decamped to another party after he was unable to retain his seat.
He pointed out that his woes within the party leadership began last year when he demanded for accountability for some Sh200,000 raised at a harambee.
