Safina presidential aspirant Jimi Wanjigi has unveiled Willis Otieno as his running mate ahead of the August 9 General Election.
Wanjigi gave the announcement today at Ufungamano House in Nairobi stating that the 36-year-old was head of the Raila Odinga presidential campaign secretariat in 2017 and works on governance issues specifically the political and electoral process in Kenya.
“I would like to introduce you to Willis Otieno, my running mate and deputy president-designate in the upcoming August 9 General Election,” he said.
While accepting the nomination Otieno urged the youth to vote for them in massive numbers on August 9, claiming that they are the solution to the youth’s high unemployment.
“There is an opportunity for every young person in this country. I accept the nomination to be Jimi Wanjigi’s running mate.
We will be seeking the votes of Kenyans who have suffered in the last 10 years but not those who have enjoyed life in the last decade,” he said.
Citing his competitors, Wanjigi highlighted they have been in politics for decades and have not made life better for Kenyans.
“Don’t tell us we do not have experience. We have seen you are incapable of delivering. This election is not about tribal formations or about those who have been disenfranchised or those who are not, digital or analogue; it is about a change of an order,” he stated.
