Yes just because one devo tried to spoils somebody's name doesn't mean the pple will b rejected.Waiguru kograts may u continue serving the kirinyaga pple the way u did good job at devolution.Let the haters continue to wipe pples asses in diaspora n working tripple.Please kirinyaga themselves will blame themselves after 5yrs if they made the right choice
For the IEBC to clear Mumbi Waiguru, Sonko, and many more others to run for an elective public office, it totally de-legitimatizes the entire election process.
