Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna has dismissed calls for the opposition to clarify its political strategy for the 2027 General Election.
Speaking on August 31, Sifuna noted that slogans had proven powerful in past campaigns, drawing parallels with President Ruto’s 2022 campaign, which revolved around the ‘Hustler’ narrative.
“We want to tell Ruto that we won’t explain our 2027 plans. Just the same way you came, saying Hustler, we will come chanting Wantam. Stop telling us to explain one term; even a small child knows what one term means. The same way you came in with a slogan, we will remove you with a slogan,” he noted.
