Nairobi - Political analyst Herman Manyora has insisted that the Mulembe community can win the presidency in future elections.

Manyora claims Mt Kenya is finished politically

In a tweet, Manyora said the chances of the Luhya community taking over the country's leadership depends on the choice of the running mate.

Manyora argued that the Luhya could win the presidency if their presidential candidate picked a Muslim as his/her running mate.

According to the seasoned analyst, the Mt Kenya region is finished politically first by allowing President William Ruto to 'swallow' them and secondly by relinquishing their dominance in business to the Somali community.

"Luhya will take over power in this country. They will achieve this by picking a Muslim deputy. The Kikuyu are finished, first by allowing Ruto to swallow them, and, secondly, as Governor Irungu Kangata says, the Somali have snatched the economy from them. Kwisha Kikuyu," Manyora said.

Why Luhyas supported Ruto in 2022

In a related development, Senator Boni Khalwale warned Ruto against any attempts to sideline Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi and National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula.

Speaking at a church service on Sunday, August 20, the outspoken senator expressed his displeasure after the president met a section of Luhya leaders led by United Democratic Alliance party secretary general Cleophas Malala.

According to Khalwale, the leaders in question were misleading the president by pretending to be kingpins of the Western region.

Khalwale reminded the Kenya Kwanza Alliance leader that, Mudavadi and Wetang'ula remain the kingpins of the Western region.

"When I see on social media some drama about photos, some people trying to Those people are not our leaders. If you to gain entry into Western, you must go through Musalia Mudavadi, Moses and Boni Khalwale. And president, don't lose that focus," Khalwale said.

At the same time, Khalwale reminded Ruto that the Mulembe community supported him, knowing he would support them in the 2032 elections.

"I told my people that if you became the president, Luhya land would not be the same and that development will be realised in the region. Secondly, in the same way, we removed Uhuru, and by the time you exit, a Luhya will take over from you.

We support the president from today until 2032, and we need to see development. We want to inherit your seat after your presidency," he added.
