Westlands MP Tim Wanyonyi has dismissed claims that he has dropped his bid for Nairobi Governor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the media at his campaign secretariat yesterday, Mr Wanyonyi termed the reports doing rounds in social media as cheap propaganda by his weak rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Already, Mr Wanyonyi has been cleared by his ODM Party to vie for the city\u2019s top seat after he submitted his documents to the National Elections Board (NEB).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAt no point have I talked to any of my opponents about becoming a Deputy to any one of them,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI declared my intention to become Governor of Nairobi on November 14, 2021. I remain committed to my declaration,\u201d he added<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He said his only remaining task is now to select a suitable running mate who shares the passion and vision of Nairobians to transform Nairobi into a home for every Kenyan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cTo my opponents spreading fake news and cheap lies about me, I tell you this: People of Nairobi now know better than you imagine. They want a leader who has been with them when they needed him most.When my people of Westlands needed me for ten years, I stayed with them. I was there for them. Similarly, when my people of Nairobi need me, as they will, I will be there for them,\u201d he said<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

At the same time, Wanyonyi reminded his competitors that the people of Nairobi need a servant leader and not characters who are puppets, have no recognizable development record and burdened by scandals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his two-year term as Westlands MP, Mr Wanyonyi has been termed as the best performing in public funds management and initiation of development projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He has been recognized as a champion of education having sponsored thousands of school-going children to attend schools from primary to University level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, he has been hailed as being a champion of women and youth empowerment through various projects like Table banking for women and skill-based training for the youth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
