Bishop Margaret Wanjiru’s decision to join the opposition and revive her bid for Nairobi governor seat has opened a fresh front in the battle for control of the capital.
Speaking on Sunday during the launch of her campaign, Ms Wanjiru, a former close ally of President William Ruto, said the country needed a change of leadership and declared that she would work with opposition leaders to build an alternative government, starting with Nairobi.
