Owing to this, politically many consider the Langata constituency an easy win for anyone who will carry the ODM flag and Raila’s support. Some even imagine that by ethics, a by-election is due before 2027, that anyone who crosses the floor ought to resign and seek another mandate.
Political preference

Eric made it clear during the show that he does not and will not be on President Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza side. He believes that Ruto will not deliver to Kenyans, justifying that he hasn’t delivered his promises one year down the line.
