Waiguru drums up support for Jubilee candidates in Kirinyaga races

Kirinyaga governorship candidate Anne Waiguru has called on voters in the county to vote for Jubilee candidates in the August 8 elections.

Addressing faithful at ACK Ndiriti Church in Ndia on Sunday, Waiguru said that being a Jubilee stronghold, it is imperative that the residents of Kirinyaga express their support to the party and to President Uhuru Kenyatta by standing by the candidates who will be representing the Jubilee in the ballot.

She further stated that the people of Kirinyaga are ready to welcome President Uhuru Kenyatta when he makes his campaign stop on Wednesday, saying the Head of State will be making a total of two visits to the county before the elections.

Waiguru was accompanied by her running mate Peter Ndambiri, campaign manager Gicobi Ndathi who is also the incumbent Joseph Ndathi’s brother, Ndia parliamentary candidate for Jubilee George Kariuki, Jubilee Kirinyaga branch chairman Muriithi Kangara among other leaders

On his part, Mr Ndathi urged the residents to rally behind Ms Waiguru and ensure she wins the Kirinyaga governorship race, to usher in a new era of development.

He said that Ms Waiguru’s overwhelming victory in the nominations is evidence of the unwavering support that she enjoys in the region, calling on the residents to turnout in large numbers on August 8 and vote her governor.

Ms Waiguru this week traversed various areas in Mwea, Kirinyaga Central and Gichugu constituencies calling on residents to support her candidature and that of other candidates in the Jubilee party.

She stated that by voting for Jubilee candidates, the residents will give President Uhuru Kenyatta majority numbers in the Council of Governors, Parliament and County Assemblies thus enabling him to implement his agenda for Kenya after the August elections.

Ms Waiguru noted that with the high numbers that Jubilee has all over the country, President Uhuru Kenyatta’s reelection is a foregone conclusion.
