After the emergence of two factions in ruling party’s Jubilee, two different women groups linked to the factions have been given birth to.
The Kieleweke faction that spearheads President Uhuru Kenyatta’s development agenda has team Embrace women group and the Tanga tanga group which has hence launched early presidential campaigns for deputy President Dr William Ruto has team Inua mama.
On Friday, the groups held two different rallies. Team Embrace was in Kakamega’s Bukhungu stadium whilst team inua mama camped in Nyeri town.
However, the inua mama rally in Nyeri turned out to be chaotic.
This has forced Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu to react following the chaotic Tanga Tanga rally at his backyard.
The group of women supporting Ruto’s bid had to cancel a rally organised by Nyeri Woman Representative Rahab Mukami, following the chaotic scenes.
Ngunjiri, who has been critical of the pro-Ruto team dubbed as Tanga Tanga, took to Facebook to warn against future rallies in the constituency.
“Am sorry. But #2022 siasa in Nyeri Constituency. At this time is a No,” wrote Wambugu, after forcefully storming the rally that was later called off.
The team had earlier toured neighboring Kirinyaga County where they were hosted by Purity Ngirici. It was the second time a pro-Ruto rally was being disrupted in Nyeri.
Among the leaders present were county MPs Wangui Ngirici (Kirinyaga) Jane Chebaibai (Elgeyo Marakwet) Gladys Boss-Shollei (Uasin Gishu) Beatrice Nkatha (Tharaka/Nithi), Gertrude Mbeyu (Kilifi), Lydia Haika (Taita Taveta) and Faith Gitau (Nyandarua).
According to Wambugu, the women legislators did not say anything of substance apart from uttering abusive statements in their rally.
“THEN OF COURSE – I VISITED THE ‘INUA-WHATEVER’ EVENT THAT SOME FEMALE MPs BROUGHT TO NYERI …But lakini except matusi I didn’t actually hear anything else of substance. But we didn’t interrupt them.They spoke. Then they left. And we left,” he posted.

let the dynasty grouped themselves,so that we can slaughter them at once.
When Murathe says "we" I wonder who it is that he is referring to. Anyway, I believe the road to state house for Dr.WSR might be bumpy but surely the Murathe's of this country can't stop Dr.WSR from getting there! I MIGHT BE WRONG BUT I AM RIGHT.
wow!very captivating news to read, thanks
