Can Moses Kuria become president?

Before we assess whether Moses Kuria can become president or not, we need first to understand him as a person. Moses Kuria is a Kenyan-born politician and a Member of Parliament for Gatundu South constituency, Kiambu County. He is also a coalition member of the Jubilee Alliance. Moses Kuria was born in 1971, and as of 2019, he was 48 years old. He is married to Joyce Njambi, and together they have two sons. He studied at the University of Nairobi, where he pursued Bachelor of Commerce.

As we all know, Moses Kuria is a controversial politician who has been arrested countless times in the past. He had been arraigned in court for engaging in hate speech both on social media and political rallies. The recent incident involved Moses Kuria harassing a woman on a local radio station. He was arrested and taken to Kilimani police station. Currently, he appears in a law court to argue his case. He is known to be a big-time critic of Raila Odinga. I guess that’s why some people hate him. But in this post, I would like us to look under the hood and find out who Moses Kuria is by thinking beyond his aggressive and irritant personality.
