You see Munya was actually never popular in the larger Meru. He was fronted by Kiraitu and word on the ground has it that some background manipulations and manouvres by Kiraitu got Munya to the post of Governor. The areas around Imenti (around Meru town and Nkubu) are the most densely populated and the "elections suit" favoured Munya who got his entire support from Imenti and Tigania...Igembe did not vote for him.
Secondly, Munya being a Tigania concentrated all his efforts in his office to hiring only the Tigania and forgot about the other Meru sub-tribes namely the Imenti and Igembe. In fact there has been alot of activities in Tigania region in terms of infrastructure upgrading and the other regions felt left out!!
The other day the guy unilaterally demolished a large number of kiosks in Meru town (Imenti occupied) and every one was very bitter... His complete disregard to the Imenti and Igembe MCAs and MPs is deep..
All this coupled to other issues led to the notorious riots in Meru town sometime in January 2014...
The court nullification of his elective position has provided a very good opportunity for the electorate to throw him out shamelessly!!
...besides, the presence of a safe alone does not signify that there is money inside...
