Independent presidential candidate Joe Nyagah has maintained that he is the right man for the country's top job ahead of the August polls.

Speaking in Kirinyaga County, the former Cabinet Minister further dismissed claims that the presidential race is a two horse race between President Uhuru Kenyatta and Opposition leader Raila Odinga, observing that he will be giving the two a money for their money.

“I’m an ostrich and will run faster than Uhuru and Raila and win. I will be the fifth President of the Republic of Kenya,” he noted.

He further took a swipe on the Jubilee adminstration, accusing President Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto of failing to deliver on key pledges made to Kenyans in the run up to the 2013 general elections.

“Jubilee Party has not delivered in the four years it has been in power. I will emulate former President Mwai Kibaki who brought development to this country,” he said.
