Busia Senator and long-time rights activist Okiya Omtatah officially dipped his toes into Kenyan presidential waters last week. He launched a 10-member committee to assess the viability of his run in 2027.
Omtatah’s jump into the fray is unusual in that, as he said: “This is a world of data...it is only when we have actionable information backed by data that one can make an informed decision. That is the preliminary stage of my presidential ambitions.”
