Governor Mwangi Wa Iria said it is time for Kenyans to do away with stereotypes that cause disunity amongst them. Wa Iria said Kenyans should elect leaders based on their track record regardless of their ethnic background. "Time has gone to continue with stereotypes and saying the country cannot be ruled by certain communities," he said. His Laikipia counterpart Nderitu Muriithi echoed similar sentiments saying he supported calls for Raila to visit the region. Mutua and Wa iria have declared their aspirations to vie for the presidency on their individual parties Mendeleo Chap Chap and Usawa kwa Wote respectively.
