Kenyans felt about the Matiang’i meeting with opposition leaders
@Captainkipkorir:
“Support Martha Karua now if you have a genuine intention to compete with President Ruto.”
@Danchepta:
“How can people who have previously be in government can liberate Kenya? Redemption cannot be obtained through words, pictures and meetings. You need those who are ready to deal with bullets and tear gas. The brave and confident genre will redeem.”
Kenneth Muema:
“I’m happy to see my presidential candidate Hon. Musyoka in the front line!”
Alinur Mohamed:
“It’s just another collection of thieves. Kenyans should understand that choosing politicians who have failed do not help us. We need real reforms. This team will not help Kenya in any way.”
@ejnyamogo:
“It is clear that Kenyans are tired of the most often used politicians. You must announce a friend of Gen Z who has never been cheated and you will defeat Ruto early in the morning.”
