The Senator, who is eyeing the governor's seat in the August 9, polls, accused Mijungu of lying on the national TV.

Nakuru Senator is up in arms with KTN News journalist Ken Mijungu over the Nakuru gubernatorial debate held on Sunday.

The Senator, who is eyeing the governor's seat in the August 9, polls, accused Mijungu of lying on the national TV about her absence at the debate.

Kihika in apparent response to Mijungu, who allegedly said that Kihika had promised to attend the debate but failed, said at no time did she pledge to grace the function.

"Mr Ken Mijiungu, Journalism is a high calling to the pillars of FACTS and TRUTH. It is not only shameful but unethical for a journalist, on National Television like KTN to lie to viewers," Kihika said.

"You know very well that I did not at any point commit to appear in the DEBATE." 

Kihika said she had already committed herself to attending a meeting in Nakuru accusing Mijungu of being biased.

"Between a prior commitment of a meeting of 4,000 people of Nakuru and a Biased Journalist moderating a debate- I made my choice to be with the people!"
