National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula has urged young people in Western Kenya to support President William Ruto in the 2027 General Election, arguing that their participation in the democratic process will be crucial in shaping the country’s future leadership.
Speaking at his Namuyemba residence in Bungoma County during a meeting attended by thousands of youths on Sunday, Wetang’ula also hinted at his own political ambitions beyond 2027, suggesting that Western Kenya should strategically position itself for the presidency in 2032.
The Ford Kenya leader said the region must first consolidate its support for President Ruto’s second-term bid before pursuing its own leadership aspirations.
