The Thika MP race appears to be a three-horse race between former legislator Alice Ng’ang’a, Juma Hemedi (Independent), and controversial cleric David Ngari alias ‘Gakuyo’.
As campaigns enter the home stretch, the three mentioned above are trying to outdo each using every means available.
Philanthropist Juma Hemedi Mwaniki who is vying on an independent ticket has resorted to using a door-to-door campaign to pass on his message to voters.
On social media and in churches, Mr. Juma has been seen to be vibrant, always updating the nation on his political strides and always pushing the agenda of his political pledges which he believes in the needs of his constituents.
