CORD politicians bullied Anne Waiguru out of office

A few months after the former Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and Planning Ms. Anne Waiguru resigned, CORD politicians suddenly went on a break from the continuous barrage of innuendos they hurled at her. The last days of her reign as a cabinet secretary were not smooth at all. She was stripped and left bare for the world to see and incriminated in the public sphere as being corrupt and unfit to hold public office. Her family was pulled into the situation and her private life made public by the media that failed to verify the information they posted about her.

Of the entire outbursts directed at Ms. Anne Waiguru, none took centre stage like the allegations that she had a secret love affair. I first heard this narrative from CORD politicians before the media and other bloggers took up the issue and blew it out of proportion. In fact, Ms. Anne Waiguru lodged a defamation case against two CORD politicians for allegations they made at a public rally which were tied to this concocted narrative. In her defense, Ms. Waiguru says the allegations have brought innumerable anguish to her and her family. She is seeking compensation for the damage these concocted allegations brought to her and her family.
