Friday, December 31, 2021 –Purity Ngirici will win Kirinyaga gubernatorial race if the latest opinion poll is anything to go by.
Blogger Robert Alai conducted an online poll on Thursday December 30 and the results favored Woman Representative Purity Ngirici who garnered a whopping 43 percent followed by Governor Anne Waiguru who got 35 percent as Martha Karua ran away with only 21 percent.
“Who is the next Governor of Kirinyaga,” the poll question read.
On Thursday, MS Ngirici, who was supposed to battle it out for United Democratic Alliance (UDA) ticket with Waiguru during the upcoming party nomination, ditched the ‘wheelbarrow Nation’ and said she will vie as an independent candidate. She showed optimism that she will still win even as an independent person.
“In 2022, I will not stand with any political party. I will seek to be elected as a governor, as an individual, and I’m confident that I will sail through,” she stated.
Following her unexpected move, Alai who is also an Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) social media strategist, carried an opinion poll in which over 19,000 Kenyans participated.
Below is a screenshot of Robert Alai’s poll on the Kirinyaga County gubernatorial contest in 2022 which left Ngirici at the top and Waiguru second.
