In Thika, Kiambu County, tension erupted on Friday as supporters of Thika MP Alice Ng’ang’a and Kamenu ward MCA Peter Mburu engaged in violent clashes concerning the construction of the Kiganjo market.
The initial dispute between MP Alice Ng’ang’a and MCA Peter Mburu quickly spiraled into chaos, resulting in multiple injuries and reports of potential fatalities.
At the heart of the conflict were conflicting claims over the credit for the market project. Ng’ang’a insisted that the National Government had allocated Ksh.55 million for the project, as pledged by President William Ruto.

Ng’ang’a leveled accusations against the Kiambu County Government, led by Governor Kimani Wamatangi, accusing them of trying to seize control of the initiative.
Tensions peaked when Ng’ang’a and her fellow MPs attempted to formally kick off the project, only to find Mburu and his supporters already laying claim to the construction site, sparking a confrontation that saw stones thrown and tear gas deployed by police in an attempt to quell the violence.
The severity of the clash was underscored by an aide to Ng’ang’a being rushed to the hospital with serious injuries amidst the chaos.
MP Alice Ng’ang’a, accompanied by other MPs including National Assembly Majority Leader Kimani Ichung’wa (Kikuyu), Gabriel Kagombe (Gatundu South), Elijah Njoroge (Gatundu North), and Ngoliba Ward MCA Joachim Njama, spearheaded the launch of the market amidst the turmoil.
