As a diehard reformist, the MP for Gichugu loathed what she termed as interference by the Executive on her reform agenda. It wasn’t surprising when she gave in to frustrations and quit from her cabinet post. Although her PNU members were discontented over her hasty move, she might enjoy a major breakthrough in her presidential bid.
Since the inception of the Grand Coalition Government, she has been vocal about her ambition to occupy State House. Now that she is not directly answerable to the Government, she will be able to conduct her campaigns without any encumbrance.
Secondly, she enjoys respect from many Kenyans over her unwavering fight against graft. This is surely her steppingstone in her quest for votes in future. She has never been implicated in any malpractice in her six years tenure.
Thirdly, Kenyans are enlightened more than ever on matters pertaining to their leaders. They have fallen victims to the male-dominated bad leadership and false promises. They are therefore eagerly waiting for women of substance to bring change that has been so elusive.Hon.Martha Karua happens to be such a woman and she is well suited to grab the mantle in the year 2012.
