Kalonzo Musyoka Launches Presidential Campaign Centre in Nairobi

Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka has formally announced his 2022 presidential bid.

Musyoka declared his bid during the launch of his 2022 presidential campaign secretariat at Wiper party headquarters in Lavington, Nairobi.

Dubbed ‘SKM Command Centre’, the secretariat will serve as the official communications centre for Musyoka, who unveiled a five-point agenda that will form part of his manifesto.

“More than ever before we can only realize the Kenyan dream through an honest and trustworthy national leadership,” he said.

He outlined economic recovery and development, agriculture, zero tolerance to corruption, sustainable debt management, and youth and women empowerment as pillars that will guide his presidential bid.

“We cannot elect leaders who seek to exploit our fears for their own political survival. How else will one propose a meaningless economic model that does not reflect his life journey? We must properly diagnose what ails Kenya and develop blueprints that work,” Musyoka said.

He added: “I want to assure Kenyans that fixing our economic meltdown is doable and achievable. While doing this, what I hear Kenyans be saying is that they want a government that protects them from harm, not one that hurts them.”

Musyoka also pledged to offer tax breaks for companies creating thousands of jobs for Kenyans and eliminate the capital gain tax for startups and SMEs.
