Interior CS Kipchumba Murkomen has called out Tana River governor Dhadho Godana for constantly whining and blaming the national government for the inefficiencies in the county.
The county boss had called out the national government for neglecting Tana River while prioritising other areas in development and government appointments.
Godana was among the dignitaries attending the homecoming of Yuda Komora in Garsen on Saturday, October 11.

Komora was appointed the chairperson of the National Police Service Commission (NPSC).
At his opportunity to speak, Godana addressed lamentations to Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi, who was also present at the fete.
He lamented that Tana River County had long been marginalised, claiming its residents had been forgotten in government appointments.
He appealed to Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi to advise President William Ruto on changing what he termed as the government’s skewed perception of Tana River.
However, Transport CS Kipchumba Murkomen, who was present at the event, took issue with the governor’s remarks, accusing him of constantly complaining instead of highlighting tangible achievements for the people of Tana River.
A visibly frustrated CS Kipchumba Murkomen urged Governor Dhadho Godhana to stop whining and focus on delivering development to Tana River residents.
He accused the governor of disrespecting Musalia Mudavadi by turning the Komora homecoming into a platform for complaints instead of celebration.
Murkomen told the governor to organise his own event if he wanted to air grievances, adding that he was part of the county’s problems and should work with others to move Tana River forward.
