Nyeri Town MP Ngunjiri Wambugu has said Mt Kenya leaders will not put Raila Odinga's photo on their camapaign posters.
He said that is a strategy they are using to sell their individual agenda to the people of the Mt Kenya region.
Ngunjiri opined that the Aspirants are campaigning to be elected on their individual strength and agenda and not because of the ODM leader Raila.
"One of the things we want to try and challenge is that we want people to be elected based on their own personal standing so that we do not get confused. We are trying to generate that aspect of personal responsibility.

"We do not want to confuse voters by hiding behind certain people," he stated.
He dismissed claims that the move shows they have distanced themselves from the opposition leader.
Ngunjiri said they are still loyal to Raila and that they support his presidential bid.
“We are selling our presidential candidate but this time, compared to 2017, there is a distinction. This is because in 2017 there were people who got elected because of President Uhuru Kenyatta but immediately they got into office, they started condemning him."
