Efforts by an ODM MP to frustrate the bid of the Kibra CEO appear to be backfiring after days of massive political activity.
According to recent surveys, the MP, who seems to have lost touch with his constituency, is now facing the real possibility of being voted out as the 2027 elections approach.
Many residents who spoke to this publication early today expressed strong support for the CEO, saying he has won the hearts of many and become a favorite among Kibra residents.
Residents have also issued a stern warning to the politician, urging him to stop using press conferences and long public statements to cast the CEO in a bad light.
They described such attempts as divisive and increasingly unpopular.
A source within the ODM party revealed that senior party officials have reportedly disagreed with the politician’s approach.
The party is now searching for a strong candidate, with the CEO emerging as the most favorable choice.
In a new twist, the politician has held several press conferences attempting to discredit the CEO’s entry into Kibra politics.
However, his efforts appear to have had little effect, as the CEO continues to assert Kibra as his political stronghold.
The CEO has vowed to transform Kibra into an economic powerhouse, promising initiatives to empower the youth, address the constituency’s poor drainage system, and enhance education.
He has also committed to tackling long-standing housing challenges, aiming to improve living conditions for residents across the area.
With residents increasingly rallying behind the CEO, the incumbent politician’s attempts to smear him now face growing resistance, signaling a potential shift in the constituency’s political landscape ahead of the 2027 elections.
