Speaker of the National Assembly Justin Muturi’s increased forays in the Mount Kenya region has led to speculation he could be positioning himself for bigger things politically with the imminent retirement of President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Muturi, a close ally of Uhuru, has been visiting different counties across the region, which is seen as a bid to consolidate his support ahead of next year’s succession.
And as the race to replace Uhuru as Mt Kenya region’s kingpin gathers pace, Muturi has already started being involved in activities that point to a possibility of getting back to elective politics.
