- A Governor is raising eyebrows after he was spotted in public armed to the teeth
- He now wears a bullet proof vest and carries three pistols wherever he goes
- He appears in public functions like a war general
A sitting governor has been spotted carrying three pistols and donning a bullet proof vest at public functions leaving people to guess what could be the problem with his security.
Poweplay has confirmed that the said governor now appears in public functions like a war general yet his security team is intact.
Sources have indicated that there is mistrust between the county boss and allies-turn foes after sharp division emerged over county tenders.
The governor is said to have turned against his allies who financed his campaigns contrary to their agreement that he would help them get county tenders once he win.
The friends are said to be very bitter with the governor.
Sources close to the governor however linked the witnessed protection to the silent differences pitting the governor on one side and his deputy and some executives on the other side.
The two factions have differed on governance issues, something that has pushed the governor to be very keen on his security.
“This is a dangerous seat. You cannot take chances and I think the boss has realised that. It is not a big deal,” a close ally told Powerplay.
