Kiambu Governor William Kabogo has said that he will make a major political statement next Thursday.
Speaking on Wednesday, Kabogo said that he will highlight some of the reasons behind his shock loss to Ferdinand Waititu.
He spoke for the first time since he was floored in the Jubilee Party primaries.
Waititu was declared winner of the preliminary poll with 358,604 votes against Kabogo’s 69,916.
Kabogo’s statement will include whether he will defend his seat as an independent.
He said that a large number of his supporters are keen to see him on the ballot.
“My supporters have been pushing me to vie. I will clear all that next week,” Kabogo said.
There have been claims that Kabogo intends to join a team of politicians, who lost in the Jubilee nominations, to form a movement that will give independent candidates a voice.
He, however, termed the reports as mere rumors.
