From milk vendor to MP: Meet Juja's George Koimburi

Many thought George Ndungu Koimburi was foolhardy when he decided to run in the Juja parliamentary byelection on the little-known People Empowerment Party ticket in President Uhuru Kenyatta's political backyard.
The party is associated with President Uhuru Kenyatta's rebel MP in the neighbouring Gatundu South, Moses Kuria.
A former chairman of the Kiambu County Liquor Board, the MP-elect did not have it easy.  At one point, he went into hiding from DCI sleuths who were reportedly looking for him over "questionable" academic papers.
No stranger to politics, the soft-spoken man's landslide victory in the Juja parliamentary by-election on Tuesday affirmed his popularity in the president's backyard having tried his luck in 2017  (on Farmers’ Party ticket) when he lost to the late Francis Waititu (Wakapee).

The powerful Jubilee Party organ has endorsed the purge of three MPs for opposing the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) and supporting the ideals of other parties.
The National Management Committee (NMC) yesterday directed the party’s disciplinary committee to begin the process that could lead to the expulsion of Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria, Nominated MP Cecily Mbarire and Nominated Senator Millicent Omanga.
In yesterday’s meeting at Jubilee headquarters, the NMC noted that the Gatundu South MP has been espousing the ideals of the People’s Empowerment Party (PEP) in contravention of the Political Parties Act.
