Former Makueni Governor has issued a statement on Kalonzo Musyoka's 2027 presidential ambitions. 

Former Makueni Governor Professor Kivutha Kibwana has spelled doom on Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka’s 2027 presidential ambitions.

In a statement on Monday, January 16, Kivutha slammed Kalonzo for asking Kenyans to pray for him ahead of 2027.

“You are preparing for your end game of a 2027 presidential bid ( knowing you will fail) in which your community gives you elected governors/MPs/Senators/ MCAs so that you end up with a retirement political investment. I pray too this time around the Kamba will not be gullible,” Kibwana tweeted.

The former county boss asked Kalonzo to seek powerful prayers to reverse a jinx that might have been placed on him.

“Since 1985 (after Manandu's death)when you were elected MP,& 2000 when at Kitaingo some traditional medicine men crowned you ethnic kingpin in waiting, your national politics have always been jinxed. You need to prayerfully reverse Kitaingo so that God of heaven can redeem you,” Kibwana stated.

He also said that he is praying for the former vice president to release the Kamba community from the real prison.

“I pray daily so that you may release the Kamba Nation from the real prison of drought, perennial famines, poverty and underdevelopment. I too pray that the Kamba may know you have confined them behind bars from Yatta & Tseikuru,” he added.

Kalonzo on Sunday, January 15 asked Kenyans to remember him in prayers after being on the losing side for the last three general elections.

“I lived through three stolen elections in 2013, 2017, and 2022. Please pray for me to get out of prison,” he said.
