KIAMBU: There is a feel good factor among Gatundu South residents and leaders. The constituency is at the centre of massive development projects worth billions of shillings rolled out by the national government after what residents term neglect by past regimes.

The constituency is the only one in history to produce two of Kenya’s four presidents – Mzee Jomo Kenyatta and his son Uhuru Kenyatta.
