Former Manyatta MP Emilio Kathuri has denied claims that he was offered Sh10 million to quit the Embu gubernatorial race in favour of his UDA rival Cecily Mbarire.

He said he was not bothered by people who were saying that he ended up only receiving Sh300,000 of the amount, dismissing the allegation as a rumour started by his opponents.
