In a lengthy statement of Facebook, he noted that he is most definitely the most dangerous man when it comes to cowing the corrupt, cartels, land grabbers and lazy individuals.

He went on to list his achievements for the last two years that he has been in office, noting that appalling headlines by “gutter press” paid for by “EACC officials and clueless pressers by MPs can divert my attention from fighting graft and reclaiming back what belongs to the public.”

The county chief has in the past couple of weeks had a run in with the anti-corruption commission officers most especially the director of investigations Abdi Mohamud.
