Today, before God and before you, I declare my intention to run for the office of President of the Republic of Kenya in the General Election of Tuesday, 10 August 2027. I will take every legal and constitutional step to present myself to you as a candidate for President. I know the size of this undertaking. And I know that I will not undertake it alone. #PamojaNaMasha

We had a focused discussion with our Mwongozo Mpya Party Nyandarua County delegates on the pressing issues in the County and how to include them in our 'Sote Pamoja' manifesto. The issues range from Agriculture: market, products and food production; to infrastructural development; to children and youth education; to drug and substances abuse; to water and energy; to mental health and many more. It is deeply inspiring to see a people who live on hand-to-mouth daily earnings still committed to speaking to issues in the hope that they can be addressed. As a party, we are not only listening, but we are actually forming necessary structures to ensure once we form government, we shall with genuine concerns address all the issues raised by our people. We shall continue to listen and engage. Mwongozo Mpya, Sote Pamoja.

As a country, we must ask ourselves: are our institutions doing enough to protect our children? Their safety cannot be negotiable. I call for a thorough investigation into these reports and decisive action based on the findings. Every child deserves protection, justice, and dignity. #childabuse #accountability #mwongozompya

We must strengthen child protection systems, ensure safe channels for reporting abuse, support survivors, and hold perpetrators accountable through due process. Children must never be silenced by fear, intimidation, or the failure of those entrusted with their care. #ChildAbuse #Accountability #MwongozoMpya

Our children are among the most vulnerable members of society. They depend on parents, caregivers, healthcare workers, and institutions to protect them. When that trust is broken, we must act decisively to protect the victims and prevent further harm. #childabuse #Accountability #MwongozoMpya

What makes these allegations even more concerning are reports that complaints were raised and questions remain about how they were handled. Every allegation must be investigated thoroughly, independently, and without interference. #Childabuse #Accountability

The reports in today’s @StandardKenya about alleged sexual abuse of boys at a hospital in Kisumu County are deeply disturbing. Every child deserves safety, dignity, and protection. No child should suffer abuse in a place where they should receive care. standardmedia.co.ke/nyanza/a…

Protecting our environment is a responsibility we cannot afford to ignore. Deforestation threatens our water sources, agricultural productivity, and the livelihoods of communities that depend on the land. We must invest in tree planting, protect our forests, and promote sustainable land use. Planting trees is a good start, but we must also protect the trees we already have. We have a responsibility to leave future generations an environment they can thrive in. #deforestation #banlogging #planttreeeske

Change is brought about by the most unlikely. Brazil's Lula just won an election bcoz indigenous people, marginalised, poor, youth, women came out to vote. Kenya's elections will be decided by women, youth & the marginalised. We are tired of petty politics. We want clean leaders

Meeting the people of Nyandarua has been an opportunity to listen, learn, and understand the challenges facing our communities. From agriculture and education to healthcare and economic opportunities, the message is clear: Kenyans want solutions that improve their daily lives. Leadership begins with listening, but it must go further. We must turn the voices of our people into meaningful action. #mwongozompya #sotepamoja #election2027

A country cannot move forward while women are held back. We must create an environment where women can access opportunities, grow their businesses, participate in leadership, and provide for their families with dignity. Supporting women must go beyond words. It must be reflected in our policies, priorities, and actions. #mwongozompya #sotepamoja

My engagement with the people of Nyandarua highlighted the urgent need to support our farmers, protect students’ futures, improve cancer care, and ensure children with disabilities access education and essential services. Leadership means listening, setting the right priorities, and putting people first. #mwongozompya #sotepamoja #nyadarua

These are not separate concerns; they are questions about how we prioritise public resources and serve our people. Every Kenyan deserves access to opportunity, quality healthcare, and education. As I listen to the people of Nyandarua, I believe our national priorities must reflect the realities and needs of ordinary citizens. #nyadarua #elections2027 #presidentialelections

Healthcare must respond to the needs of our people. Families affected by cancer need access to early diagnosis, specialised treatment, and affordable care. Children living with disabilities also deserve accessible education, essential medicines, assistive devices, and adequate support for the institutions that care for them. #Nyadarua #presidentialelections #elections2027

The challenges facing university students deserve urgent attention. Financial hardship, interrupted learning, and mental health struggles are serious concerns. We must protect the well-being of our young people, ensure continuity in education, and provide support that allows them to pursue their future with dignity. #nyadarua #presidentialelections #elections2027

Our farmers need more than encouragement. They need affordable farm inputs, reliable markets, better storage facilities, access to financing, and fair prices for their produce. Improving agriculture means protecting livelihoods, creating opportunities, and strengthening our food security. #nyadarua #presidentialelection #elections2027

Today, as I engage with the people of Nyandarua, I am listening to the issues that matter most to ordinary Kenyans. From farming and education to healthcare, these conversations remind us that leadership must begin with understanding people's everyday realities. #nyadarua #presidentialcampaign #elections2027

I'm in Nyandarua today to listen, not to lecture. The Aberdare feeds the rivers that farmers and families here depend on. Residents are asking who is cutting, where, and under what plan. That deserves a public answer. I will share what I hear. #nyadarua #stopdeforestationke #plantreeske

More than 2.4 million Grade 6 and Grade 9 learners are sitting national exams this week. To every child: breathe, read each question twice, do your best. To the teachers and invigilators guarding the integrity of these exams: thank you. #candidates #exams #wishingyousuccess

Leadership is measured by integrity, service, and the legacy we leave behind. On Sunday, at PCEA Elijah Kagiri Church, the retirement and ordination service was a reminder of the church’s vital role in shaping values, nurturing responsible leaders, and preparing the next generation to serve faithfully. #leadership #LeadershipEthics #leadershipdevelopment
