The lawmakers from Ukambani have instead urged Ngilu to support current governor Kivutha Kibwana and instead seek a senate seat.

MPs Charles Nyamai (Kitui Rural) and Francis Nyenze (Kitui West) said the former minister was best suited to be in the senate after the next polls.

The lawmakers who were speaking on Friday during a campaign rally said they will campaign for Ms Ngilu if she agrees to vie for the Senate seat.

“It is no doubt that Ngilu and Musila are political forces to reckon with, but to unseat Malombe, they must reach a common ground whereby Ngilu runs for senator while backing Musila for the governorship,” Mr Nyamai said
