As the drama quietly played out at State House, a historic meeting between the Kikuyu elders and the Luo was going down at Raila’s Bondo home. The nominated MP told the Star that while other communities will not be isolated in the new alliance, “Ruto's remote chances of winning any support in Mt Kenya will go up in smoke. Mt Kenya will vote based on their conscience without any intimidation,” Kiharu MP Ndindi Nyoro said. Seen as Raila's possible 2022 Mt Kenya pointman, Kenneth was among more than 500 elders and prominent personalities who visited Raila's Bondo home on Saturday. On Sunday, Ndaragwa MP Jeremiah Kioni, one of the prominent MPs from Central Kenya who attended the Bondo meeting, told the Star Mt Kenya will not field a presidential candidate.
