Mt Kenya Tycoons Throw Weight Behind Raila's 2022 Presidential Bid
The Mount Kenya Foundation (MKF) on Wednesday threw their weight behind ODM leader Raila Odinga’s 2022 presidential bid.
The foundation made up of wealthy businesspeople drawn from the Mt Kenya region endorsed the candidature of Odinga in a meeting held at Safari Park Hotel.
“The purpose of today’s meeting is to host the forthcoming president of Kenya so that we can escort him to Kasarani for Azimio la Umoja,” MKF Chairman Peter Munga said.
The meeting was attended by senior government officials including four Cabinet Secretaries from Mt Kenya region, Interior Principal Secretary Karanja Kibicho, four governors, and several MPs. The resolutions of the meeting were read by Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Peter Munya.
“Azimio la Umoja guarantees the continuity of the legacy and projects implemented by President Uhuru Kenyatta. The people of Mt. Kenya have no confidence in sweet talking people who want to take advantage of our problems and use them as fodder for electioneering without offering concrete solutions.”
“We have also witnessed what corruption can do to an economy and cannot imagine a Kenya where looters are in-charge. Our economy-related issues are complex and cannot be reduced to a mere slogan, catchy phrases or handouts,” said Munya in reference to Deputy President William Ruto’s presidential bid.
MKF said they settled on Odinga because he has demonstrated commitment to “guarantee our fair share of government commensurate with our real population strength. A commitment to increase the devolution fund and respect for property rights.”
Odinga, who is expected to formally declare his State House bid at the Azimio La Umoja national convention at Kasarani Stadium on Friday, was present in the meeting.

Do not mess with money. Money talks. The backing of rich Kikuyus will deliver the Presidency to Raila. Period!

Mwakilishi, this is garbage! I am very very wealthy kikuyu man from Limuru and this does not reflect what I will do. I have 10 companies raking in billions of shillings every year and as far as am concerned my vote us for Ruto. Unlike Uhuru am a principled person—I was personally there and helped broker deal between and Ruto and the initial agreement was 10 for Uhuru and 10 for Ruto.
I know some silly and arrogant fools will comment here and say….am very rich or my wealth is ill gotten and wants Ruto to protect me. Ad pastor Nganga would say—Lubbish. The fact is you haters and your haterade will never be as successful as I am. And no, I was not born with a silver spoon. I cleaned butts and became NP in the US and became very successful in my LLC then relocated back to Kenya with even more investments. Wacheni ujinga haters

Moi tried this, and failed. All these tycoons were in KANU, but failed to deliver the region to KANU. My Kenya vote as individuals, not as a group. Uhuru lost Gatundu in 1997.

Game might be 2 close to call but an old tired Raila will go the way of Jaramogi. Reigned but never ruled. He reps the past while Ruto reps the future. He reps the witches and warlocks, sorcerers and devil worshippers. Luciferians and Satanists.

A wheelbarrow has no future! It’s a symbol of poverty driven mentality! It is the worst thing Ruto can use as he tries to ride on the shoulders of the poor masses! You can read Ruto through his bulging ugly teeth! Only a stupid fool that can figure Ruto out! I would never vote for a criminal!
