Koinange daughter chosen to run for Kiambaa MP on Jubilee ticket.
The family of Paul Koinange has picked Lenah Koinange, daughter of the former cabinet minister Mbiyu Koinange to vie for the Kiambaa seat on the Jubilee party ticket.
Through spokesman Leonard Karuga, they said 10 family members were interested in the seat but they had agreed to support Lenah.
“It was a tough decision but we all agreed to support Lenah who is Koinange’s last born,” Karuga said.
He said the family was not at crossroads on who to select, calling the choice a show of democracy to agree on one person to face other aspirants.
Lenah said, with the blessings of the family, if elected she would work diligently to fulfil the dreams and works of her father.
A section of elders also endorsed Lenah and called on Kiambaa people to rally behind her.
