Reactions as MOSES KURIA announces 2027 Nairobi Governorship bid and names vocal ODM MP as running mate



Monday, December 01, 2025 - Former Public Service Cabinet Secretary, Moses Kuria, has unveiled Makadara Member of Parliament, George Aladwa, as his running mate in the 2027 Nairobi gubernatorial race.

In a social media post, Kuria shared a campaign poster featuring himself alongside the outspoken ODM legislator, declaring their joint bid for City Hall.

Kuria explained that his decision to team up with Aladwa was driven by their shared concern for Nairobi residents and the challenges facing the capital.

He insisted that the partnership was not about tribal or party affiliations but about leadership and service.

“Not because of our tribes. Not because of our parties. Because we care for Nairobi. Because we understand what Nairobians are going through. Because we have local, regional and global networks to fix Nairobi.”

“Because we have many years of combined leadership and managerial experience.”

“Because we are not tribal. Because we have what it takes to make Nairobi work again,” Kuria stated.

Aladwa, however, is yet to publicly confirm whether he will deputise Kuria in the race.

The ODM MP is among several politicians who have already expressed interest in succeeding Governor Johnson Sakaja in 2027.

The announcement has sparked mixed reactions and we have sampled a few.
