Amani National Congress leader Musalia Mudavadi s presidential bid yesterday got a boost when Western Kenya Council of Elders backed him for the top seat.
In a move to consolidate his support in his Western Kenya stronghold as he seeks a stab at the presidency in 2022, Mudavadi met leaders from the region and pleaded with them to rally behind him.
The elders formally endorsed Mudavadi’s bid, technically posing a big challenge to other possible contenders eyeing the seat from the region.
