The 2022 General Election is just a stone throw away. Those eyeing various seats are positioning themselves in readiness for the murky campaigns while the incumbent are nervous to death.
Of particular interest to political observers are governors, who have concluded their tenure in office having served the constitutionally permitted two term limit but are still in their prime ages. They are unlikely to retreat into political oblivion at a time the country is heading into its fourth republic.
These governors, who hold a lot of sway in regional politics, include include Wycliffe Operanya (Kakamega), Ali Hassan Joho (Mombasa), Amason Kingi (Kilifi), Alfred Mutua (Machakos), Prof Kivutha Kibwana (Makueni) and Mwangi wa Iria (Muranga).
