The move to endorse Kihika has however elicited mixed reactions among Kenyans as many are convinced that Kenya Kwanza will be supporting DP Gachagua for the position come 2032, as President William Ruto would be going for his second term in 2027.
Others however wondered where renown women leaders like Narc Kenya leader Martha Karua was. There were also suggestions that Kihika won’t even win the governor’s seat in 2027 leave alone the presidnecy.
Here are some of the reactions of Kenyans on X about the endorsement;
Kijana ya Baba: If you are talking about women, where is Iron lady Martha Karua, Waiguru,wanga ,wavinya. Most of these women are political loosers and bed to bed midfielders
