A former chicken seller became President. Don't you think another chicken seller who also grows and sells fruits should become President, but start from a 'small' position like Governor😅?
I was honored to join the Kikuyu Council of Elders in witnessing the reunion of Mama Ngina Kenyatta and Field Marshal Muthoni who buried old differences & together, passed on the baton to the new generation of economic freedom fighters and peace crusaders.
So help us God.

@RailaOdinga
& Dr. Nyawira Odinga ahead of our grand event in Nyeri today. Day by day, we continue to make great strides in achieving a better Kenya through leadership centered around the people's needs.
Karibuni Nyeri tupange a better Kenya. Inawezekana.
Kenya is bigger than any Political Party or Coalition. If parties no longer serve the interests of the majority, then the majority are obliged to chart a new path of independence; Independent Thought, Independent Candidature, & Independent Leadership that prioritises wananchi.
I had the pleasure of catching up with Rt. Hon Raila Odinga this evening when he called on me. I'm happy that he's jovial as ever and in high spirits even as the political class deliberates on the way forward with regard to the national dialogue committee's report. I encouraged
Growth is silent. A golden throwback to 2012 when I was getting guidance from the best,

. An important lesson from Baba is that you mustn't follow the majority to be right. Even as an independent, what's right remains so. Better days are ahead!
I'm impressed with Baba

Kenya needs more of the Swedish diver Volker Bassen kind. He wasn't motivated by tribal inclinations, material reward and was fully aware of the near - death conditions but gave a try.
More encouraging, when he wasn't succeeding, he admitted and explained.

A pleasure catching up with my brother and worthy competitor
@HonTimWanyonyi
who shares the same vision of a prosperous Nairobi as I do. Together, we'll give Nairobi residents the best leadership through our Azimio Coalition.
Better Days are ahead my people👍
Before you say vitu ni different kwa ground, remember the swedish diver Volker Bassen
- Volunteered with no coercion
- Asked for no pay
- Risked his life where local divers backed out, safety concerns
- Has inspired many due to his selflessness
- Is a hero

May the all merciful God whom we serve shield those in Mozambique, Malawi and Zimbabwe.
He has shown mercy and provided protection before and He can do it now to the many who have no one to turn to.

Miguna Miguna is the perfect example of the kind of men to warn your sons not to grow into.
Who will ever trust such a bitter guy to be close to them again?
What a shame!
I'm tempted to think the media could be giving too much attention to the Sarah Wairimu, Tob Cohen (RIP) and the Philip Murgor trial.
When a murder trial beams more than education matters, Starehe Girls issue, Likoni rescue and economy related cases, something could be wrong
Today's
#SaganaDeclaration
is an affirmation that the Mountain is solidly united behind one leader, H.E Uhuru Kenyatta, and his political direction ahead of the August polls is as important as ever.
When I see Mwalimu Peter Tabichi standing next to US President Donald Trump in the White House, I remind the many sons and daughters I have, that tribalism and lack of connections, as most people cry out , aren't as powerful as humility and hardwork.
Let's glorify the positive.
It is my pleasure to welcome you all to my gubernatorial bid launch at the Kasarani Indoors Arena tomorrow, 7th January 2022, from 7.30 am. Come, and let us begin the journey to transform Nairobi into a thriving hub of opportunities for all. Karibuni!

Rest in Peace Tob Cohen.
The investigations will reveal what led to his death and offenders punished.
May the unfortunate incident not lead us to rush conclusions on Sarah Wairimu and ethnic stereotypes.
We are beautiful in our imperfections as communities and as a country.
His tribe didn't speak for him, nor did 'connections' get him to meet US President Donald Trump at the White House. His passion did.
Don't glorify laziness by blaming everything and everyone around you.
Kudos Mwalimu Peter Tabichi, Global Teacher Award winner.
Congratulations to Ann Mvurya on your historic election as the first ever female chair of

The violence meted on JKUAT students is barbaruc, evil and UNACCEPTABLE.
As stakeholders, we will not watch students get maimed in school by those who should protect them.
Radical actions to follow.

A lesson from Ednah Otieno's rise to Great Britain's Diageo is that when it's your time to shine, not even a pandemic will stand on your way. Keep working and keep trusting. Make excellence your trademark and the best will come to you.

For my gubernatorial bid launch at Kasarani, your unwavering support and encouragement, I say thank you. Together, we'll transform Nairobi. Asanteni Sana.

Your passion and hardwork can see you through.
Stop complaining about connections, WORK!
Even with the setbacks, the people's project Agnes Kagure is finally cleared to contest. Being my worship day, I'm reminded of David's story and how he was initially written off but he prevailed, being God's choice - so will we. Let's get going & bring this home.

In the Tob Cohen and Sarah Wairimu case, it's a family issue and rests with few individuals.
No communities or ethnic groups are involved.
Let us escape the temptation of stereotyping whole communities and soon enough, countries.
RIP Tob Cohen

The commitment by Interior CS Fred Matiang'i to take action on the officers who brutalized JKUAT students is welcome.

I also hope that it emboldens your fighting spirit that regardless of your present state, a better future awaits you.

A day to look back at the achievements Kenya managed under Rtd President Moi's reign.
Regardless of the challenges, there was sobriety in party politics and patriotism had to come up even in the nursery classes.

Thank you Gov.
@MikeSonko
for the endorsement and support towards my candidature. Our people-centered alliance will accommodate all your supporters, and together, we'll change the lives of all Nairobi residents for the better.
Asante sana.
Nothing justifies murder, especially of little innocent children with absolutely no part in the adult games and angers.
Peter Mugure and such men should be severely punished in this world and the next.
Joyce Syombua and the little angels, Rest in Peace.
It was an honor to join Pres. Uhuru at the AIC Pipeline Church for an uplifting prayer service and later, at the opening of the church's Education Complex. I'm glad my good friend

You mentored, guided and showed the way.
You insisted that business isn't just about being in the game but about thriving, leaving a mark and taking up more challenging tasks and your journey at Safaricom, lived true to that.
Go well Bob Collymore, RIP
