Ken Lusaka No Show for His Unveiling at Ruto's Residence

Senate Speaker Kenneth Lusaka failed to turn up for his unveiling as Kenya Kwanza's gubernatorial candidate in Bungoma. 

Lusaka was to be unveiled at 8 am by Deputy President William Ruto and Ford Kenya leader Moses Wetangúla, alongside a Samburu gubernatorial aspirant. 

He said he was held up chairing the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region (ICGLR) which he couldn't miss.

"I have been chairing an international conference, i.e ICGLR. I am the President. I didn’t have to be there physically,” he told Nation. 

He added that despite his political ambitions, people need to remember that he was the Senate Speaker.

“People should remember that I am still the Speaker and President of ICGLR,” he stated. 

Leaders allied to the Kenya Kwanza coalition announced that they had settled on Lusaka nad would do everything possible to make him the next Bungoma governor

On Saturday, April 2, Kimilili MP Didmus Barasa said at a funeral service in Kamukuywa, Bungoma, that Kenya Kwanza-allied MPs and MCAs in the county would marshal support for the Speaker.

"We will do everything in our power to ensure that Lusaka is the next Bungoma governor. He is our candidate,” said Didmus.

Lusaka, who was present at the same event, welcomed the endorsement.

"MPs are not only leaders but also voters in Bungoma. We will work together to change the lives of the county residents, " he said.
