Richard Ngatia's re-election bid as the Kenya National Chamber of Commerce and Industry President has been boosted following the endorsement of his candidature by key national leaders. National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula and Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi have endorsed him and his Team Volcano squad for a second term for the polls slated for June. Ngatia, who is seeking re-election with Abdulwalli Shariff as his running mate, will contest against the Chamber's Vice President Eric Rutto. Wetang'ula and Mudavadi pledged their support for Ngatia's bid when he and his team paid them a courtesy call at their respective offices on Wednesday. Mudavadi also showed his support for Director John Shimaka in his bid as the incoming KNCCI National Director for Western Region.
