Sifuna backs opposition unity as Linda Mwananchi mobilises in Kwale

Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna's Linda Mwananchi movement took its grassroots mobilisation tour to Kwale County, a day after unveiling its secretariat and leadership, with leaders urging the opposition to unite behind one candidate to face President William Ruto in 2027. The unveiling had been marred by disagreement , with Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka jeered. Addressing a rally at Masai Grounds in Ukunda town, Sifuna said Kenyans were yearning for a single, strong opposition candidate and asked other leaders not to let them down. "To send Ruto home, we need a strong team and a strong presidential candidate. I will ask other leaders to listen to the voices of the people politely because this is the voice of God," he said. The team made stopovers in Samburu, Kinango, Kwale town and Kombani during the day-long tour.
