Which gas of advocacy is my colleague inhaling? Elsewhere, his high pitch precedes him. I'm wondering why the JO failed to bring the court to order. There are alot of saids that should never have been said! 😂
@robkm__ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 talking about “just allow your soul to be immortalized in between the spaces of his words,” kijana wa Kaplong unawezatunga kama hizi kweli?🤣🤣🤣
Good evening colleagues.
I have this evening instructed my campaign secretariat to discontinue any and all engagements that may have existed with Mr. Patrick Wandare, Advocate. He will forthwith not take any part in any activities relating to my candidacy or campaign.
Mr. Wandare intimated his support for my candidacy in January 2026 after initially having been a strong supporter of one of my opponents. From the outset, he has never been retained as a representative or agent of my campaign, and his involvement therein was solely as a supporter.
The grave allegations against Mr. Wandare are shocking, and such conduct is inconsistent with my personal values and the principles of my candidacy. I have zero tolerance for all perpetrators and enablers of sexual harassment, and do not intend to advance any relationship with individuals who demonstrate contempt for the ideals of mutual respect, dignity, and freedom from all forms of gender-based violence including sexual harassment.
I express my deepest sympathies to all persons that may have fallen victim to Mr. Wandare, and endorse any action they may take to seek justice for the pain they have suffered.
Mwaura Kabata,
LSK Presidential Candidate
