Machakos Gubernatorial aspirant Nzioka Waita has pledged his support for the ongoing Azimio la Ukambani Alliance.
The former Chief of Staff at the President’s Executive office has disclosed that he is joining governors Charity Ngilu (Kitui), Prof Kivutha Kibwana (Makueni) and Dr Alfred Mutua (Machakos) to popularize the Azimio la Umoja ideals.
Speaking earlier this morning, Waita confirmed that he will be meeting the Machakos Business Community in Machakos town to ramp up support for the Azimio la Umoja Movement.
He said his resolve to join the Azimio la Ukambani Alliance stems from his unwavering belief that the Ukambani people deserve accelerated service delivery and growth in the next government.
While paying tribute to Governors Ngilu, Mutua and Kibwana for laying a solid foundation for growth, Waita noted that the region stands a good chance of consolidating current gains by supporting the Raila Odinga-led Azimio movement.
“Last week, I announced my candidature for the Machakos Governor’s seat. Today, I also confirm my support for the Azimio la Ukambani campaign. While Governors’ Mama Ngilu, Dr Mutua and Prof Kibwana lead the field campaigns, I will be holding fort in Machakos Town as I plan to join the subsequent rallies because Azimio means a better Kenya,” Waita said.
He assured that his support for Azimio la Ukambani is aimed at ensuring that the wider Ukambani region is not left out of the winning formation.
He added, “My joining the formidable Azimio la Ukambani alliance is borne out of deeply held principles to ensure that the wider Ukambani region reserves a seat in the winning team. Ukambani region cannot afford to languish in the opposition. It will be a great disservice to our people, who have enjoyed the fruits of devolution in a big way and deserve to enjoy further and accelerated growth in the next regime.”
Azimio governors accompanied by area leadership, will celebrate a milestone with the commissioning of the 670th Machakos County Government borehole at Muthesya, Masinga, followed by a public rally at Kathukini Market and a ground-breaking ceremony for the construction of the New Level 4 Masii Hospital.
They will also address a public rally at Masii town followed by the commissioning of Kangundo Town Urban Modernisation projects before winding up the day in Kangundo town.
