Kiambaa MP Stanley Githunguri has yet to state categorically which seat he would be going for, only indicating it is governor or senator. It is expected that in the coming days, more people will come up to declare interests in the two powerful seats in the county that is home to deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta.
Mr Kenyatta is widely believed to have a huge influence on how the people of Kiambu county and Mt Kenya region will vote being a potential presidential candidate and having run for the presidency in 2002.
