Muhia-Gitau UDA team ‘to give Kimemia a run for his money’
Then still a candidate in the 2017 gubernatorial elections, Governor Francis Kimemia (left) shakes the hand of current Woman Rep Faith Wairimu Gitau (centre) in celebration at the Milimani Law Courts in Nairobi after her victory in the petition filed by Ms Wanjiku Muhia on May 19, 2017.
The two erstwhile rivals have teamed up against the incumbent governor.
Pundits say alliance is bound to give Jubilee Party sleepless nights.
If Kipipiri Member of Parliament Amos Kimunya is to be brought to a reckoning at the ballot in his bid for re-election next year, it will most likely be by former Nyandarua Woman Representative Wanjiku Muhia.
The Jubilee Party majority leader in the National Assembly, who has the backing of Governor Francis Kimemia, is a formidable opponent in his own right, but that is not stopping Ms Muhia, a fiery orator and effective grassroots mobiliser, from promising the two a bruising battle at the polls, come August.
