A member of Nyeri county assembly is nursing injuries following an alleged attack by her male colleague during a benchmarking trip in Arusha, Tanzania.

According to reports, Pauline Wanjira(Magutu Ward MCA) claims that Kirimukuyu Ward MCA Anthony Ndagita attacked her with a broken beer bottle.

The attack reportedly took place on Wednesday, 9th May at a bar in Arusha, Tanzania where members of the Nyeri County Assembly had gone for a training seminar.

Photos of Wanjira looking roughed up have since emerged on the internet. She flew back to the country on Thursday for treatment.

The ward rep pinned the attack on supremacy battles in the county assembly.

Wanjira has previously accused Kirimukuyu MCA Anthony Dagita of assaulting her, though no arrests were ever made.

Ndagita was one of 5 Nyeri MCAs who rejected the nomination of Caroline Karugu as Deputy Governor.
