Kirinyaga Governor aspirant Martha Karua has said that she will protect President Uhuru Kenyatta's votes as she did to Kibaki in 2007.

Karua urged residents to ensure 100 per cent voter turnout during the polls.

"Today we are only reminding you of Uhuru's vote since we know he has votes in Kirinyaga, but we can err if we don't turn out. That day after voting go back to your home and look out for anyone who may be unable to make it to the polling stations, the old the sick. …Take them to vote.” Karua told residents of Kutus.

"We want Uhuru to be miles and away ahead in tallying such that Raila will not be anywhere near. Tell them Martha Karua is still here. Did you see me supervise Kibaki's votes..did you find me a joke when working? ” the Narc Kenya leader said.

Gichugu MP Njogu Barua who attended the event said NASA had already realised they will lose and that is why they keep on looking for survival tactics.

“Let them not politicise the death of Nkaissery. The CS interior is our son and we are also affected as a nation,” Barua said.

His sentiments on voter turnout were echoed by Maragua MP Kamande Wambuku who called on all registered voters to turn out to vote or President Uhuru.

"Close to half a million in Central and Eastern did not turn out to vote last elections, but this time we all must show up to ensure this is done without a doubt."

Other Members who were in the caravan include Mary Wambui (Nakuru Women Rep), Mary Wambui (MP Othaya), Isaack Mwaura (Nominated), Nelson Gaichuhie (Subukia), Joyce Ngugi (Gatundu), Esther Gathogo (Ruiru) and Nderitu Mathenge(GilGil).
