No More Cartels: Hospital Clean Up Causes Mulyungi's Meltdown

Image
Little MP Mulyungi who's bitter after losing power to loot Mwingi Level IV Hon. Gideon Mulyungi has overtime proven to be a thug. His conduct has exposed him as a man driven not by public interest, but by personal vendetta and wounded ego.  Mulyungi's relentless attacks on Governor Julius Malombe are neither principled nor issue-based; they are the bitter cries of a politician who lost access to a system he once exploited at Mwingi Level IV.  Mulyungi stands out as the only MP in Kitui County perpetually at war with the Governor. And his pet subject? Mwingi Level IV Hospital.  For years, the facility, under the grip of Mulyungi and his cartels operated as a private preserve. His cousin who headed the hospital allowed the MP to turn the facility into a personal fiefdom and a looting canteen.  When Governor Malombe disbanded the bleeding cartel and promoted Mulyungi's cousin to head health facilities in Mwingi North, the short MP lost a fuse. But sanity had been restor...
