Wajackoyah Claims He Was Offered Sh200 million to Drop Presidential Bid

Wajackoyah Claims He Was Offered Sh200 million to Drop Presidential Bid

Roots Party presidential candidate George Wajackoyah claims that he was offered a whopping Sh200 million to shelve his bid for the presidency in the August 9th elections.

The 62-year-old said that the money was offered by people who wanted him to step down from the presidential race over fears that his candidature was gaining popularity with the masses.

“Recently they came to my place and said that this Wajackoya, why don’t we just pay him Sh200 million so that he can drop his bid,” he said at the Paris lounge in Roysambu as quoted by Nation.

He added: “I looked at them and told them that I am the most learned man in Africa and I cannot be compromised. I have worked in higher places like United Kingdom and I cannot betray the trust of the people.”

Wajackoyah vowed to ensure that his competitors Deputy President William Ruto and Azimio La Umoja-One Kenya coalition presidential candidate Raila Odinga are sent home, saying that they are part of the problems the country is currently experiencing.

“I want to tell Raila and Ruto that I am Kenyan just like them. They should all go home with the president in August. They are the ones responsible for the mess we are currently witnessing in the country. They should not despise others and treat them as lesser beings. I want to tell them that I will win this vote by 65 percent,” he said. 

“I am an instrument being used by God. That is why people are printing t-shirts with my name and images,” he added.

If elected president, Wajackoyah has promised to introduce radical reforms including the legalization of marijuana to support its processing for medical use, and the upscaling of snake farming to produce antivenin.

He argues that marijuana and snake farming can generate sufficient revenues to help offset the national debt which currently stands at Sh8.4 trillion.

    Just as John Mututho said: "We have spent years fighting drug abuse and Wajackoyah should not be allowed to introduce more problems in Kenya. I own a rehabilitation centre and I understand how drugs and substance use have ruined the lives of our youth across the country.”

    If they offered you all that Stolen money and you deny it then you shouldn't run for president because you are damn.

    I tempted to think hat Nobody offered Wajachoyah any Money. I think he is Simply sending a Vailed (Indirect) message to Insinuate that some People somewhere were given KShs.200 Million and they Took it. He is (in a Nutshell) Throwing under the Bus those who Took the Money to Abandon their Quest for the Presidency.

    He should have taken it. Does anyone, anywhere know the year that Wajackoyah graduated from University of Baltimore? What about Walden U? what about year of graduation from any of his other Universities?

    Walden hajamaliza bado...and it is online

    Ndugu Wajackoya:

    Kama hutuambii aliyetaka kukuhonga na kukupa mamilioni ya hela, naomba unyamaze.

    Jamani, Tumechoka kwa kupewa habari nusunusu kila wakati bila kuambiwa kiini chake na pia kupewa taarifa yote kamili kwa kirefu.

    Nakubaliana nawe. Hii ni tabia ya magazeti na wanasiasa wa Kenya. I also get the impression he lied about his Tottenham experience. I stand to be corrected but in order to run, I have to presume he was a UK citizen, yet he is now running for president of Kenya which requires that he have no allegiances to any other state. If he is still a UK citizen, he would be disqualified from being president.

    The ONLY HORSE thinking out side the box here in Kenya! He ain’t a lier neither! Not promising freebies!

    Kenyans need to learn and understand more about industrial hemp; Google Israel for instance. They are doing well with it.

    Deal or no Deal? Deal. Put 200M in your pocket. though we enjoy your show.

    Too high on weed to know the value of money. He has a math problem

  13. MsonoBariJun 26, 2022

    It could be All a Show as you've Mentioned. It's very Doubtful that he was Offered the Money (bearing in Mind that his Votes would be a 'Drop in a Bucket' compared to Either of the 2 other Candidates; Agwambo😇 and Arap Mashamba👺).
