Kibra Constituency is now the epicenter of a major political scramble, with top political parties and powerful politicians from both the government and the opposition are locked in a silent war to secure the allegiance of the much celebrated Nicholus Okach alias the CEO ahead of the upcoming elections.
What began as quiet grassroots engagement has now exploded into a full-blown political earthquake—one that has sent shockwaves through Nairobi’s political elite.
Normally for one to control both the national and the Nairobi Politics , Kibra Constituency is usually the key, it’s residents are always courageous and ready to take up the arms in case of a serious political engagements like the peaceful protests.
The tension escalated dramatically just days after Okach declared Kibra his undisputed stronghold, boldly stating that the constituency is now his “bedroom”—a remark that has unsettled seasoned politicians and rattled party headquarters across the capital.
Sources indicate that senior political operatives have been dispatched to hold late-night meetings and private negotiations, as influential figures struggle to counter the CEO’s rapidly growing influence. Others are reportedly pushing for urgent press briefings in an attempt to slow what many now describe as an unstoppable political wave.
Widely referred to by residents as the “the People’s CEO,” Okach has spent months quietly building a formidable grassroots network.
Moving from village to village and ward to ward within Kibra, he has transformed lives through his Foundation, paying school fees for needy students, supporting vulnerable families, and restoring hope in a constituency long plagued by broken promises.
“This is our leader. Through his Foundation, he has done what politicians failed to do for years. We are ready to elect him,” said a resident during a recent community engagement.
The CEO’s popularity has grown so strong that viral reports emerged yesterday showing residents openly telling the incumbent MP to step aside and allow Okach to take over the political mantle of Kibra.
When reached for comment, Okach confirmed that he is now under intense pressure to align with major political parties—an indication of just how valuable his influence has become.
“Yes, we have been approached by more than four strong political parties, from both the government and the opposition. However, the right time to make a decision will come. For now, our focus remains on serving the people of Kibra,” Okach said.
Political analysts now say Kibra could be the deciding battleground, with the party that secures Okach’s backing gaining a significant upper hand in Nairobi politics.
As the clock ticks toward election day, one thing is clear: Nicholus Okach is no longer just a community leader—he is now the most sought-after political prize in Kibra.
