Nyandarua Senator Mwangi Githiomi Ditches Jubilee for Ruto's UDA Party
Nyandarua Senator Mwangi Githiomi has become the latest leader to ditch the ruling Jubilee Party ahead of the August 9th general elections.
Githiomi, who is the Chairperson of the Senate Lands Committee, decamped to the Deputy President William Ruto-led United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party on Friday.
The first-time senator was received to the ‘hustler nation’ by Ruto at the deputy president’s Karen residence, where he declared he will defend his seat in the forthcoming elections.
"Growing bigger and better. Welcoming Nyandarua Senator Hon. Mwangi Githiomi to the Hustler Nation," Ruto wrote on his Facebook page.
Githiomi was also welcomed by a host of other UDA leaders among them Murang'a Senator Irungu Kang'ata, MPs Ndindi Nyoro (Kiharu) and Kimani Ichung'wa (Kikuyu).
Githiomi’s decision to ditch Jubilee comes as the President Kenyatta-led party holds its National Delegates Convention (NDC) on Friday at the Kenyatta International Convention Center (KICC).
It also comes ahead of Ruto’s tour of Kinangop, Ol-Kalou, Oljoorok and Ndaragwa constituencies in Nyandarua County to drum support for his presidential bid.

Githiomi is a big thief too and he will lose hands down! Keter calls them thieves because they have stolen everything kenya owns!
One man out of Jubilee is too many for Uhuru especially coming after Sagana lll indoctrination in vernacular.
I’m sure we will continue witnessing the same as time gets closer to election.
Hilo jina nalo, eti Githiomi? Huyu jamaa si wa Nyandarua I think ni wa Mai Mahiu juu amechanganyikiwa
The name means a mad cow! He will still lose because he has no vision! Matakonomics to him means his dirty ass! The guy looks stupid!
Mlandizi, let me be naive sitakutusi…unaniita kuchanganyikiwa? Weeeee, haiya
Who cares. He is going to lose election no matter which party he affiliates himself with. The man is senile
Well said! Just look at his damn name, “Githiomi” simply meaning one who speaks in tongues because he is confused! His constituents hate him so much that they are happy to see him go!
The Nyandarua people must all be stupid to elect a dummy looking guy like this Githiomi! What kind of a name is this? And he sure looks like a foolish Githiomi!
Githiomi,I have known him close to 40 years, he is an intelligent and enterprising guy, hard working too, but also an opportunist to boot. During the dying days of the Moi cleptocracy,he decamped from Mwai Kibaki to KANU and he was appointed Minister for finance. He lasted some 3 months before being booted out by the new regime.
Ruto is grubbing those useless senators and others who have done nothing for their people except steal resources allocated to developing those areas. What other better place for Githiomi to be than the UDAku house of thieves. He has stolen enough and he want the corruption train to continue past 2022. He will be defeated in his dirty plan.
