Title: KANU to Field Presidential Candidate

If they carry through Jubilee is gone!

I am sure Jubilee will fight this with the last remaining molar against metal

Kanu will field a presidential candidate in the August General Election, the party’s national elections board says.

In an advert in a local daily, the board on Monday invited aspirants for the seat to file their applications for the ticket.

“We invite eligible Kenyans who subscribe to the ideals, vision, mission, objects and core values of the party to present their expression of interest…,” the notice said.

Applicants for the seat— together with those seeking Kanu tickets to run for member of county assembly, MP, woman representative, senator and governor—have up to February 21 to submit filled forms.

NASA PLAN

The forms are available on the party’s website.

Kanu’s declaration that it will field a presidential candidate brings to a close speculation that it would support an opposition candidate.

Kanu secretary-general Nick Salat had in early January declared the party's support for the opposition coalition, the National Super Alliance (Nasa).

However, his declaration was dismissed a few days later.

The party’s national executive council member Zipporah Kittony called Mr Salat’s statements personal, saying they did not reflect the position of the party.

Kanu, Kenya’s independence party, ruled the country for 24 years before it was uprooted by the National Rainbow Coalition (Narc) in 2002.

Former President Daniel passed the baton of the party’s leadership to Uhuru Kenyatta in the run-up to 2002 polls before his son, Gideon Moi, took over.

Joke of the year - where does GM hope to get votes - Baringo kati -  he is just trying to up his stakes - hoping like Kalonzo before that he can flock a few thousand votes for big position.

Am glad you are dismissing them. CORD is taking them very seriously even though they would take no votes from us.

What is KANU's end game?  They seem to be all over the map.

They would pose a grave danger if they keep out the clones that left and present a clean image. Sadly their best candidate would be Moi but he is no orator in a country where oratory makes all the difference. I can't see Gideon avoiding shame in a National televised debate.

I think the Moi's are trying to shake Ngina for more money.
