A section of Mt Kenya leaders, including seven governors and a Cabinet secretary, have proposed that the region fronts a presidential candidate in the 2022 General Election.
Citing its high number of voters, they stated that there is no political deal or agreement anywhere limiting the region to a presidential running mate next year or not fielding one at all, adding that they would stick together and speak in one voice.
They agreed that the region’s leaders should be free to compete against other candidates and that the next President should be elected on the basis of the agenda he will sell to Kenyans.
The Mountain side I hail from does not really care for a Kyuk Presidency. So wacheni kudanganya watu. They are ‘great think tanks’ like Uhuru…dying to see someone else at the helm. Ahem.
