On Monday, April 11, local newspapers focused on President Uhuru Kenyatta's visit to Mt Kenya in a few days to come and the ramifications of his involvement in his succession politics. People DailyThe publication reported that President Uhuru Kenyatta would officially kickstart his tour of the vast Mt Kenya region later this month. As widely presumed, the president's tour was aimed at marketing the Azimio la Umoja presidential candidate Raila Odinga, but a section of his allies has now raised concerns. If the president must market Raila in the restive Mt Kenya region, his handlers propose targeted town hall meetings in selected towns. Nakuru governor Lee Kinyanjui was also quoted as saying that the post was a preserve for Mt Kenya; hence those eyeing it out of the region should stop wasting their time.
