Narc-Kenya Leader Martha Karua and her TSP counterpart Mwangi Kiunjuri on Monday met a section of lawmakers from the Mount Kenya region to deliberate on various issues affecting the country.
Conspicuously absent from the meeting was Gatundu South Member of Parliament Moses Kuria who has been working with Karua and Kiunjuri towards uniting Mt Kenya ahead of the 2022 election.
Explaining Kuria’s absence from the meeting, Karua said the Chama Cha Kazi leader is on safari.
“Enjoying tea with like minded parties and some members of parliament from Mt kenya discussing issues of unity of purpose… Hoping to meet a larger and more diverse group soon @HonMosesKuria is on safari,” she tweeted.

Some of the MPs who attended the meeting include; Kanini Kega, Sabina Chege, and Jude Njomo among others.
Kiunjuri, Karua, and Kuria are all party leaders from the Mt Kenya region and have been working together towards ensuring that small parties are not bullied into coalitions ahead of 2022 elections.
The meeting came a few days after a section of Tangatanga allied troops from Mt Kenya held a three-day meeting in Nanyuki with DP William Ruto in what they said was crafting the region's economic blueprint for the hustler nation.
In a statement after the meeting, the leaders said they rally behind DP Ruto and support UDA as the official Hustler Nation party.
“We have resolved that we shall canvass the agenda of the people we represent on the platform of UDA, a political party we have formed together with other Kenyans from across the nation.
“We commit to mobilise and urge our supporters, as we do all Kenyans, to be part of the new non-tribal, non-sectarian political dispensation under the UDA party anchored on the new progressive and revolutionary bottom-up economic model,” the group’s statement read in part.
