Churchill Show comedian MC Jessy whose real name is Jasper Muthomi has announced he will be contesting as an independent candidate for the South Imenti Member of Parliament seat.
This move follows a previous consensus with UDA party leader William Ruto whom they agreed he would drop out of the race for UDA’s Mwiti Kathaara and to take up a role in his presidential campaigns.
“MC Jessy (Jasper Muthomi) will join the presidential campaign team after postponing his parliamentary bid in favour of Mwiti Kathaara for the South Imenti Seat,” the DP tweeted.
Taking to social media, Jessy announced a u-turn noting that he is still in the race.
“Sent like an arrow from a mighty man’s hand. We keep going….. Bado tuko kwa race. Let’s do this South Imenti, on August 9, it is. Thank you my boss Deputy President Dr William Ruto for your counsel, My support for you remains Intact!!!!” he wrote.
