But the political landscape is taking a new shape going by the recent party nominations. Young leaders have clinched both the ODM and Jubilee Party nominations including Charles Njagua Kanyi (Starehe, Jubilee), Babu Owino (Embakasi East, ODM), John Kiarie (Dagoretti South) and Steve Mbogo (Starehe, ODM) among others. The late Makadara MP Dickson Wathika and Nairobi ODM chairman George Aladwa have been mayors in the capital city. "My interest in leadership is within Nairobi, and I will go for the top seat of governor. Nairobians have faith in me and have demonstrated by electing my son as MP for Mathare and I also served in Starehe," Wanjiru said.
