Former Public Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria has named Makadara Member of Parliament George Aladwa as his running mate for the Nairobi Gubernatorial seat in the 2027 general election.
In a social media post on Sunday, November 30, Kuria shared a poster featuring himself and Aladwa, announcing that the ODM MP will be his running mate.
The former CS noted his bid for the Nairobi governorship alongside Aladwa is because they care for the capital city and what the residents are going through.
Kuria expressed confidence that he and Aladwa have what it takes to transform Nairobi, saying they possess the leadership and managerial experience, as well as the regional and global networks, needed to fix the capital.
“Not because of our tribes. Not because of our parties. Because we care for Nairobi. Because we understand what Nairobians are going through.

“Because we have local, regional and global networks to fix Nairobi. Because we have many years of combined leadership and managerial experience. Because we are not tribal. Because we have what it takes to make Nairobi work again,” said Kuria.
Aladwa is yet to respond on whether he will be deputising Kuria in the Nairobi gubernatorial race come 2027.
The ODM MP is among politicians who have also declared their intentions to run for the Nairobi governorship.
On Sunday, October 12, Kuria announced he will run for the Nairobi gubernatorial seat in the 2027 election.
In an update on X, Kuria pledged to transform the capital city into a model of cleanliness and efficiency.
"Dear President William Ruto. Today you spoke to my heart. Like Prime Minister Baba Raila Amolo Odinga has told me countless times, Nairobi cannot continue to be the city of filth, garbage, and incompetence.
"I have heard your cry. That is why I will offer myself to be the Governor of the great County of Nairobi in 2027. I will fix Nairobi," he stated.
