Village elders will form a massive campaign network for government

The move by President William Ruto to onboard more than 106,000 village elders into the National Government Administration system a year to the general election has been widely interpreted as a campaign strategy.

The Village elders, who work hand in hand with Nyumba Kumi community policing clusters, who are 210,000 across the country, as well as grassroots peace committees, ensure that the government is appraised of what goes on at the family unit.
