Njoro MP Charity Kathambi is walking a tight rope as she faces six other candidates on the ballot, among them her predecessor Joseph Kiuna who once served both Njoro and Molo constituencies.
Kathambi made her first stab at the seat in 2013 through Deputy President William Ruto’s then United Republican Party (URP) but she lost to Joseph Kiuna under The National Alliance (TNA) party.
In 2017, Kathambi made her debut in Parliament sponsored by the ruling Jubilee Party, a move that sent Kiuna to political cold in the past five years.
