President Uhuru Kenyatta is set to get a huge boost in quest to reach out to undecided voters, following the decision by his supporters to reach out to reach out to five of their friends who are yet to make up their minds. Using #Get5VotesForUhuruto, which has been trending in Kenya, the Jubilee supporters have vowed to conduct a door-to-door campaign for the President, in a move that is aimed at converting the nearly 10% of voters who have told pollsters they are not sure who they will vote for as president. Some supporters have listed some of the key reasons why they are rooting for the re-election of President Kenyatta.Here are some of the notable tweets from the President’s online army:“I believe in UhuRuto's transformative agenda. And I will directly reach out to 5 non believers and convert them. I will #Get5VotesForUhuRuto," wrote blogger Pauline Njoroge. @ItsPettyWap: “Make it happen today! #Get5VotesForUhuruto. Convince 5 more people to vote for @UKenyatta."@paulinenjoroge: “Hatutaki vitendawili. Tunataka maendeleo. More roads, hospitals, SGR to reach Naivasha & beyond etc. That's why I will #Get5VotesForUhuRuto."@Muhahami: “#Get5VotesForUhuRutoYes! I am true believer of the Leadership of H.E. @UKenyatta and @WilliamsRuto I will get 5 people to vote for them!”@atanasi: “The Construction of the standard gauge railway has created employment for hundreds of youths #Get5VotesForUhuRuto."@PolycarpHinga: “I swear to convince at least 5 people to vote for UhuRuto and make sure they turn up on 8/8. So help me God #Get5VotesForUhuruto."President Kenyatta’s main challenger, NASA’s Raila Odinga, is yet to clearly define his strategy for online campaigning.
