MPs endorse Waiguru for Deputy President
A section of Members of Parliament have endorsed Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru for the Deputy President position in the 2027 elections.
The legislators, including Irene Njoki, Anne Wamuratha, and Gachoki Gitari, warned the Mt Kenya region against abandoning President William Ruto's re-election bid, citing the risk of losing political influence.
Leaders Cite Waiguru's Experience
The leaders pointed to Waiguru's experience at the National Treasury, as Cabinet Secretary, and her two terms as Kirinyaga governor, as preparation for a greater national responsibility.
They urged Kenyans to make their 2027 presidential choices based on performance, rather than political rhetoric, and asked residents to support President Ruto's re-election bid.
