Keroche’s Tabitha Karanja joins UDA to vie for Nakuru Senate seat

NAIROBI, Kenya, Jan 26 – Keroche Breweries Chief Executive Officer Tabitha Karanja has joined the United Democratic Alliance (UDA).

Karanja was introduced by Deputy President William Ruto during a joint rally with Amani National Congress leader Musalia Mudavadi and his FORD Kenya counterpart Moses Wetangula.

The Deputy President further announced that she will be vying for the Nakuru Senatorial seat during the August elections.

“People of Nakuru, how do you see this beauty? Is she enough or not? Do we have a Senator or not? Don’t you know this woman? Isn’t she a bottom-up individual? I am giving her a UDA cap,”

The meeting at the Nakuru Show Ground marked the first joint rally by the parties in an invent that could formally unveil the Uchumi Kwanza alliance, a Ruto-led coalition that will challenge ODM leader Raila Odinga’s Azimio la Umoja Movement unveiled on December 10, 2021.

Although the three are yet to make a formal announcement on an alliance, Ruto’s United Democratic Alliance (UDA) has already endorsed a partnership with Mudavadi’s ANC and Wetangula’s FORD Kenya unveiled in what has come to be known in political circles as an earthquake.

Both Ruto and Mudavadi have termed the Sunday announcement at the Bomas of Kenya as a pacesetting pronouncement in subsequent meetings where they received defectors from other political formations.

Ruto’s for instance unveiled Starehe MP Charles Njagua who decamped from the governing Jubilee Party to UDA and Makueni Deputy Governor Adelina Mwau who quit Wiper and declined an invitation to join Makueni Governor Kivutha Kibwana’s Muungano Party.

The move prompted an immediate response from Kibwana who severed ties with Mwau saying Mwau “will walk alone”.
