Recently, the father of two admitted that he has started thinking about vying in future.
Speaking to Milele FM presenter Ankali Ray, he said that his move has been influenced by the bad decision that elected leaders have been making that have seen Kenyans strain.
“We have to start thinking about it because, we have been teargassed, arrested but when the time of making decisions, the stupid politicians pass finance bills, burdening Kenyans. You see Eric protesting, arrested and taken to central police station but when it is time for making decisions Erico is not there.
“So its just noise he is making out there. You see why I have started considering vying? And it is not me alone, we want to go in there and kick all of them out the 189 MPs that were voted in,” he explained.
