President Uhuru Calls All Mt Kenya Leaders for a Meeting at State House

The President is inviting all Governors, MPs, and Senators irrespective of their political affiliations to a meeting scheduled for Friday, March 18 mid-morning.

In a message to all the leaders, it read, "Good evening Mheshimiwa, I wish to invite you for a meeting of all MPs, Senators, and Governors from the Mt Kenya region at State House Nairobi on Friday, 18th March 2022 from 10 am. Kindly confirm your attendance now."

According to Kiambu Senator Kimani Wamatangi, one of the political bigwigs who recently decamped to Ruto's side had confirmed receiving the message but maintained that they are yet to know the agenda of the meeting.

"I received a text this morning that invites me to the State House. The text is worded noting that it invites elected leaders from the Mt Kenya region from Senators to Members of Parliament," Wamatangi said.

Though the details of the meeting were not issued, it is believed that the president will try to use the meeting to convince the leaders to rally behind his preferred successor, ODM leader Raila Odinga.
