When contacted for a comment Mweetwa’s political rival Joe Muchindu thanked Hon.Mweetwa for listening to his criticism.
Muchindu said his criticising of the lawmaker is not based on personal grudge but poor service delivery in the constituency.
He urged Mweetwa to impress because he is doing his last term as Choma central MP.
