The race to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta once his term ends in the August general elections is currently at an all-time high, with Raila Odinga launching his manifesto on the 6th of June 2022. Ruto’s supporters are currently chastising him for reportedly attempting to prohibit the importation of mitumba, a vital component of our economy.
Nonetheless, according to the latest Meru opinion survey, Azimio Nominee Maoka Maore will win the Meru county parliamentary seat against the UDA candidate and close ally of the vice president Justus Kagwima Wanita. According to Mizani Afrika polls, Maoka Maore has a popularity rating of 36.7 per cent, followed by the UDA candidate at 26.7 per cent.
Justus Tuitumu was ranked third with a popularity rating of 16.7%, while Joseph Meruaki Manaiba was ranked thirteenth with a popularity rating of 13.3%. The number of people who are still unsure remains at 6.1 per cent.
Kenyans are looking forward to the twelfth general election, which will take place on August 9, 2022. This is the time when voters will have the opportunity to elect leaders in various elective political posts such as MCAs, MPs, Women Representatives, Senators, and Governors.
Kenyans will vote for the president on August 9th, as well as other elective offices. Many candidates have expressed interest in the presidency, with the hope of succeeding President Kenyatta, who will leave office soon after the expiration of his term.
Raila Amollo Odinga of the Azimio La Umoja-One Kenya Alliance and his counterpart, Kenya Kwanza Alliance flag bearer Honorable William Samoei Ruto, are viewed as the frontrunners for the presidency. This is because they have made advances for their political parties in many parts of Kenya, making them more popular than other presidential hopefuls.
With only a few months till the next general election, politicians have been spotted jumping from one political wave to the next, particularly from the Kenya Kwanza Alliance to the Azimio La Umoja-One Kenya Alliance and vice versa.
