Former Jubilee MP Quits Politics

Former Imenti Central MP Gideon Mwiti has retired from active politics to venture into the corporate world.

Mwiti who lost his bid to defend his Parliamentary seat in the August General Election stated that from now henceforth, no one should take political matters to him.

He noted that he will still interact with residents and people across Kenya and the whole world through corporate ventures.

Mwiti further congratulated President Uhuru Kenyatta and his successor Moses Kirima on their election.

He asked President Kenyatta and National Super Alliance (NASA) Leader Raila Odinga to engage in dialogue for the sake of peace and unity.

"I am highly satisfied with the results of the August 8 election. For the avoidance of doubt, I will not seek to be elected again as MP for Imenti Central," Mwiti stated.

"Raila should not be underrated because if Uhuru has 10 supporters, Raila's are nine. Let them dialogue, not for nusu mkate, but so Raila can get a state job," he added.

Speaking to Kenyans.co.ke, a Mr Geoffrey Murianki from Mwiti's camp confirmed that the former lawmaker had been speaking on quiting politics. 

"What I can tell you is that Mwiti is not into politics anymore. He has been talking about it for a while," Murianki stated.
