Kenyans are wondering why President Uhuru Kenyatta, the Jubilee Party candidate failed to show up for the media limited debate.
NASA candidate Raila Odinga is the only one who has arrived for the debate.During last week’s Deputy Presidential debate only one candidate appeared as well.
So,why didn’t Uhuru Kenyatta show up?
Sakaja,Jubilee Nairobi Senatorial candidate revealed that their party would not be available because some of the journalists were allegedly biased.
Mr. Diba also revealed that the media was biased and so he ofted out of the debate.
Sakaja also revealed that President Uhuru Kenyatta would attend if John Sibi Okumu was the moderator.
Since Linus and Joe Ageyo were chosen,looks like the Jubilee party were serious about their demands.
Sibi hosted a popular TV program, Summit aired on Kenya Television Network (KTN), in which he interviewed Kenyan politicians.
Over the years, he has been recognizable, especially to Kenyan listeners and viewers alike, as a radio and television newsreader and presenter. For example, between 1997 and 2002 on The Summit, conducting incisive, one-on-one TV interviews with such personalities as Daniel arap Moi, Mwai Kibaki, Robert Mugabe, Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, Richard Leakey and Wangari Maathai.
Raila Odinga will have a better opportunity to sell his coalition and their manifesto to over 10M viewers via TV,radio,newspapers and online platforms.
