โI have decided to fire myself before I am fired:THE chairman of the city liquor board has resigned over alleged political differences with Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero.
Speaking at City Hall yesterday, George Aladwa said Kidero intended to fire him from the Nairobi City County Liquor Control and Licensing Board on Tuesday.
He said this was because he chairs an ODM committee that will take disciplinary measures against Kidero on Monday.
The governor on Tuesday backed ODM candidate Moses Kajwangโs rival in the February 12 Homa Bay senate by-election, Philip Okundi.
โI have decided to fire myself before I am fired. But we will definitely fire Kidero from the party,โ Aladwa said.
Cord MCAs asked the county boss to resign from ODM and join Okundiโs Maendeleo Democratic Party.
โKidero has gone against the partyโs wishes and the party leader,โ Aladwa said.
The liquor board was formed last year to regulate the alcohol industry after several deaths from illicit brews.
โSince my appointment, I was not given an office, staff, or a car. I have been reduced to a beggar in the governorโs office,โ Aladwa said.
He said Kidero has betrayed him after he campaigned for him in the March 4, 2013 general election.
