In a dramatic political twist, former Chief Justice David Maraga has catapulted himself into the 2027 presidential race with an electrifying endorsement from his Bonyamatuta clan. The political tides have shifted, and Maraga is now a serious contender for Kenya’s top seat!
A staggering 250 clan members, including high-profile opinion leaders, gathered at Ibara Viongozi Kebirigo Pastoral Centre in a momentous event where they officially gave Maraga their unwavering support. The atmosphere was electric as the former CJ sought the blessing of his people before launching his national campaign.
Leading the charge was ex-councillor Nelson Onyancha Onduko, who lauded Maraga’s strategic approach—consulting his roots before taking on the nation. In a bold statement, Onduko declared, “Maraga has our full backing! He has served Kenya with integrity, and now he is ready to lead as the next president.”

The Gusii community is rallying behind him like never before, with a commitment to mobilizing nationwide support. Maraga’s track record in the judiciary is now being used as ammunition to fuel his presidential bid, with his supporters touting him as the only leader capable of rescuing Kenya from its political and economic turmoil.
Prominent advocates Dennis Matara Abincha and Joseph Ombasa Kiangoi did not mince words, branding Maraga as the “most competent and battle-ready candidate” for the 2027 showdown.
But the plot thickens! Social media has been ablaze with speculation that Maraga is secretly backed by President William Ruto. However, in a fiery rebuttal, the former CJ shut down the rumors, insisting he is no one’s puppet.
With momentum building at a breakneck speed, one question remains—Is Kenya ready for President Maraga?
