2022 succession politics is becoming hotter as more candidates continue throwing themselves in the race, with Makueni Governor Professor Kivutha Kibwana being the latest.
This is after the second term County chief affirmed his interest in the 2022 top most political seat in front of Deputy President Dr William Ruto.
Prof Kibwana was speaking during the Turkana Annual Cultural Festival in Lodwar on Thursday.
Kibwana was responding to a recent story written by one of the popular Newspapers in the country indicating the people who will run for presidency in 2022.
Kibwana faulted the Newspaper for only publishing the faces of six individuals among them DP Ruto and opposition chief Raila Odinga considered to be the main contestants while leaving out him.
Last year, a section of Kenyans took to social media asking Kibwana to consider running for the Presidency in the 2022 general elections.
In a message sent after Madaraka Day celebration, Kivutha had indicated that “Kenya needs a third liberation. A liberation for economic independence, rooting out corruption and development of the grassroots economy.”
Kenyans were quick to respond to the Makueni County boss urging him to offer himself for the post of President in the coming elections.
