Michael Gitonga has tossed his hat into the ring to become president of Kenya.
The Uhuru Kenyatta- look-alike looked tired and intoxicated in the video that was first shared by The Standard.
“Mimi kama Uhunye wa Umoja, Michael Njogo Gitonga. Niko hapa kufanya manifesto yangu, na watu wa media. Kutoka hapa naenda kwa registrar (of political parties) kufanya clearance”, he says in the video.
Journalist: Unasimama kiti gani?
“Nasimama kama president of the repubic of Kenya”, he replied.
Njogo who shot to fame in 2020 says he will contest the presidency as an Independent.
He says his reasons for contesting is because the current crop of leaders are not pro-people.
“Manake nikaamua kusimama kama president, nimeangalia nikaona Ruto, Raila ama Baba. Hawa watu hawawezi saidia watu. Hawa watu wengine wanajiita hustler, mimi ndio the real hustler”, he said.
Njogu who has now gained weight and looks a little bit different from what he was in August 2020, added that he is the one to liberate the country.
“Mimi Ndio nitakomboa mwananchi wa chini”.
