On the other hand, Karua's mother Josephine Wanjiru noted that her daughter had always stood for what she believed was right since childhood.
Josephine mentioned that her daughter would help fight the runaway corruption in the government if they win the August election.
“Msimamo wake wa kuchagua mambo mazuri ulianza kitambo. Namjua kama mtoto ambaye hapendi ufisadi na matusi. Akifanya kazi na Raila, naona nchi yetu ikienda mbali na ufisadi utaisha," Josephine Wanjiru.
Martha's brother Nyagah Karua said," The feelings are overwhelming; we have never experienced such greatness. I believe being a person of integrity, she will change this country. She has been a tough lady right from childhood."
