Former media personality Janet Mbugua has responded to Moses Kuria’s offer of being his deputy Governor.
Moses Kuria taking to Twitter, said that he would like her to join him and be his running mate on the August 9th General Elections. He had claimed that Janet had reached out to him. But withdrew from the contest for what he claimed were unprecedented personal reasons.
Taking to Twitter as well, Mbugua thanked Moses as she politely turned down his offer.
Thanks, @HonMoses_Kuria for considering me capable to serve Kiambu County as Deputy Governor.
Indeed, active engagement in politics isn’t for me at the moment. I remain available in support of quality service to the good people of Kiambu & all of Kenya, more so vulnerable women & girls.
She noted.
The Gatundu South MP has expressed his utter shock learning that Janet would not be taking up the role. So he took to Twitter to express his shock.
“I am shattered. After scoring the highest marks in the talent search for Kiambu Deputy Governor, Janet Mbugua will not be taking up the job due to unforeseen personal emergencies that she has to attend to in the immediate term,”
he wrote.
He however disclosed that even though she declined the offer, his administration will work closely with her in the future. He termed the situation as a great loss.
“My administration will definitely find a way to benefit from her experience and capacity in the future. I feel the loss. Janet is a huge inspiration for the youth, for professionals, for women and for young mothers of this country ”
