Charity Ngilu has resorted to dirty politics, deploying her online handles to smear Senator Makali Mulu through blogger Maverick Aoko. After a long spell of silence, Ngilu’s bloggers led by one Denis from Kisii resurfaced immediately after the Facebook post began circulating, a timing that clearly exposes the source of the attack.Both Ngilu and Makali Mulu are eyeing the Kitui gubernatorial seat, with Kitui Central emerging as the main battleground. Coming from the same region, the two are locked in a fierce fight for control of the vote, a rivalry now spilling into coordinated online propaganda instead of issue-based politics.
