It is just the beginning of 2018 and 2022 succession politics for Kwale county gubernatorial seat have started renting the air.
Jubilee MCAs in the county have already thrown their weight behind Deputy governor Mrs Fauma Achani who they describe as the best successor for county boss Salim Mvurya.
Mvurya is set to join national politics as Deputy President William Ruto contests for President.
Achani has been described as the most vocal leader coming to the defense of Mvurya whenever critics hit on him.
“The position of governor in 2022 needs someone who understands the job and knows what the Kwale people need,” Mkongani MCA Ndoro Mweruphe said.
“Do not throw away the opportunity to develop Kwale by choosing somebody else. We are endorsing Achani as the best choice for the position since we have seen her work with the governor,” he added.
Mweruphe spoke after distributing bursary cheques to parents at Baraza Park.
