Friday, February 4, 2022 – Kieni Member of Parliament, Kanini Kega, has exuded confidence that former Prime Minister Raila Odinga will form the next government in August.
In an exclusive interview with one of the local dailies on Friday, Kega said Raila has already climbed Mt Kenya and he will get 70-80 percent of votes during the August 9th, General Election.
Kega said despite Deputy President William Ruto and his United Democratic Alliance (UDA) brigade claiming they are in firm control of the Mt Kenya region, the truth on the ground is their popularity is fading as the election nears.
“The UDA wave is slowly dying because it was a storm in a teacup. They have always been claiming they have the numbers but look even on the floor of the House.
“The same will play out when we go to the ground,” Kega stated.
On whether former Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka will join Raila Odinga’s Azimio La Umoja Movement, Kega said it is just a matter of time before the Wiper boss joins the winning team.
“I don’t doubt that given a choice between Azimio and going to the other side, he will definitely come to our side.
“It is a question of time,” Kega said.
