Baringo Senator Gideon Moi's presidential ambition has received a major boost.
This is after the youth from Rift Valley stated that Moi was best suited compared to Deputy President William Ruto.
During a press conference on Saturday, the caucus dubbed 'Vijana na Gidi' stated that its only Gideon who has qualities for the top job.
The leaders maintained that they had no problem with Ruto.
"He represents the interests of the youth and cuts a national image which is likeable by many Kenyans," Allan Mulwa, the chairman of the group, said.
According to Mulwa, Gideon has on many occasions indicated his willingness to help tackle problems facing the youth.
"We know the DP is there but it's our right to back someone of our choice in leadership and that is why we have settled on Gideon," Mulwa said.
Ruto is expected to run for the presidency on a Jubilee ticket in 2022.
