The differences between Taita Taita Governor Granton Samboja and MPs, Damson Mwashako of Wundanyi and Women Representative Lydia Haika, deepened when the legislators accused the county boss of sponsoring people to oppose them in next year's elections. 

The MPs also accused Samboja of using his Anguo FM to attack and malign them. They claimed the governor is also interfering with their work, allegations Samboja denied saying the two MPs were making the claims out of panic ahead of the polls.
