Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 81544, member: 636"] A governor says the opposition is getting its act together for 2027. Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya claimed 2026 would see a stronger, unified opposition forming to challenge bad national leadership in the next general election. He stated that opposition leaders are resolved to stay together, motivated by the severe problems Kenyans face and a belief that unity can deliver a better government. Natembeya described the country as in its darkest period but with a brighter future, urging people not to surrender the fight for good governance, equality, and justice. He accused those thriving on public resources of abusing rival leaders and scheming to force everyone into a failed regime. Natembeya said they refuse to join, arguing the country needs alternative voices for real change. He framed 2026 as the foundational year for 2027's elections, wishing Kenyans the wisdom to choose good leaders. He specifically called for unity and peace within Trans Nzoia and the wider western region, arguing that community unity builds a stronger nation, while labeling as tribalists those who oppose such unity to hoard jobs and resources for their own groups. Natembeya urged Kenyans to unite and love each other to remove bad leaders and unlock national potential. He invoked the freedoms won by forefathers, vowing that current leaders would keep speaking out against societal evil. He demanded that those in power respect and implement the 2010 Constitution, which he said they ignore. On local issues, he claimed his administration cleaned up the mess left by previous regimes in Trans Nzoia, thanking residents for the chance to serve and promising a more fruitful 2026. He acknowledged that the fight for equality and justice is dangerous, with some leaders risking their lives. Despite a challenging 2025, he pledged to keep working for Trans Nzoia residents. He also told leaders from other regions who camp in his county to undermine him to instead help people in their own areas facing similar hardships. He concluded with thanks for divine mercy and wishes for a happy, blessed 2026. [/QUOTE]
