Kalonzo will not deputise anyone in 2022 – Maanzo

Makueni MP Daniel Maanzo has addressed rumors that Wiper leader Kalonzo may be cajoled to deputize ODM leader Raila Odinga in the upcoming elections.

Speaking at a function in Kalembwani, Maanzo said that Kalonzo will be OKA’s flag bearer in the race to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta.

He noted that for a long time Kalonzo and the Ukambani region has been backing up other candidates to vie for the presidency and now it was time the favor is retributed to him.

Maanzo called on Raila to back Kalonzo this time in a bid to appreciate his previous support.

“We have been supporting other candidates for years, we backed Raila Odinga and got nothing. Shockingly during the handshake, he went alone and ate alone. We supported Moi and Kibaki also,” said Maanzo.

“There is nothing else Raila can do now other than say Kalonzo Tosha. We did our part let him do his,” he added.

NCCK Holds Workshop to equip Lower Eastern Youths with leadership skills ahead of 2022

National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) has embarked on empowering the youth from Lower Eastern by training them on leadership skills and how to be relevant as the 2022 general election approaches.

Speaking at the event Nzembi Nzioka the NCCK youth coordinator urged the youth to remain focused and vigilant since they are the future of society.

“We met the youths to strategize and reflect on the status of the youth and the future, the conference was guided by the theme ‘awesome youth for an awesome society’ drawn from 1st Timothy 4:12 which says that; Let no man despise your youth but be an example of the faithful in word, in conversation, in charity, in faith, and in chastity,” Nzembi stated.

Nzembi also reiterated that the youth should be at the forefront of participating fully in the leadership positions since they can provide leadership and solutions to the society and thus youth leadership should be embraced.

“We urge the leaders both political and religious to embrace the youth and give them the support they require to provide solutions to the social, political, and economic problems in our society. The youth are not the problem to be solved, we are the solution and as youths, we should take positions and set standards thus we should be ready to overcome the obstacles in life for us to prosper.” Evangelist Joel Kulu the youth representative Eastern region said.

He encouraged the youth that they are the warriors that society is depending on to overcome poverty and despondency and thus they should be courageous to fight for leadership positions in the church, political arena, and the society at large.
