This comes a few days after Jalang’o through an NTV interview said that he’s best positioned to lead the Lang’ata youth to great things urging them to register their votes in the Constituency and he’s convinced that he’s going to become the next Member of Parliament for Lang’ata.
“I am going to be the next MP of Langata. Youths change your votes. Come and vote for us to build a new Langata.
I am campaigning for myself. I am very serious, I am the next MP of Langata. Mark this day. I don’t go for things I can’t get. And once I have I said it…. start getting used to your future MP,” Jalang’o opened up on his recent interview with NTV.
The Lang’ata Parliamentary seat is rather an interesting one which has attracted a lot of aspirants with some among them being Silas Jakakimba who is Raila Odinga’s personal assistant, the incumbent Member of Parliament Nixon Korir, Former Gor Mahia Treasurer Sally Bolo, the city Lawyer Steve Ogola and many others without forgetting Jalas himself.
Lang’ata Constituency is going to be one of the hotly contested seats in the upcoming 2022 general elections that’s only a couple of months away.
