Kirinyaga Woman Rep Wangui Ngirici has withdrawn her support for Deputy President William Ruto in the 2022 presidential election.
On Sunday, December 26, Ngirici who had vowed to drum up support for the deputy president pulled a surprise stating that she will not campaign for any presidential candidate in the 2022 elections.
She told the Kirinyaga electorates that they are free to choose whoever they deem fit to take over from retiring President Uhuru Kenyatta.
“Those who want to vote for William Ruto, I have no problem they should vote for him, those who prefer Raila Odinga, I have no problem go and vote for him and those who want Musalia Mudavad should do the same,
“Anyone who will vie I have no problem with them because it’s the people who choose the leaders that they want and I don’t want to feud with anyone because the Constitution allocates the funds that each position should have in its kitty,” Wangui said.
In what appeared that Ngirici would dump William Ruto’s party, the Woman Rep claimed that she was aware of plans to rig her out of UDA party nominations and warned her competitors that she will be on the gubernatorial ballot in 2022.
“In August 2022, in the Kirinyaga County gubernatorial race, Purity Wangui Ngirici will be on the ballot and my supporters should not worry about that. It should also serve as breaking news for those who wanted to rig me out in the nominations,
“Wangui Ngirici will be on the ballot paper in the gubernatorial race and I want to tell you the truth, I have no problem with anyone you want to choose from the MCA to the Presidency but the governor’s vote comes to me,” she said.
