Surpassing the Competition
In contrast, other declared candidates—former Governor Charity Ngilu, Kitui Woman Representative Irene Kasalu, Kitui Central MP Dr. Makali Mulu, and Kitui Senator Enoch Wambua Kiio—have not demonstrated the same level of global engagement or innovative vision.
- Charity Ngilu:

Picture: Hon charity Ngilu While Ngilu has experience as a former governor, her tenure was marred by criticisms regarding unmet development goals and governance challenges. Her approach lacked the innovative strategies necessary to propel Kitui into a new era of growth.
- Irene Kasalu:
As the current Woman Representative, Kasalu has focused on gender-related issues but has not presented a comprehensive plan addressing the broader economic and infrastructural needs of the county. Her local focus limits her ability to harness global opportunities for Kitui. - Dr. Makali Mulu:
Despite his role as Kitui Central MP, Mulu’s initiatives have been primarily localized, lacking the international perspective required to attract global investments. His development record does not reflect the transformative vision necessary for the county’s advancement.
Enoch Wambua Kiio:
Senator Kiio’s political career has been characterized by traditional approaches to governance, with limited emphasis on innovation or global engagement. His strategies have not demonstrated the capacity to drive significant economic growth or infrastructural development.
A New Dawn for Kitui
Nicholas Mulila’s candidacy represents a departure from traditional politics, introducing a forward-thinking approach that leverages global connections for local benefit. His vision encompasses not only economic development but also social transformation, aiming to make Kitui a model of prosperity and innovation. The people of Kitui stand to gain immensely from his leadership, ushering in an era of unprecedented growth and development.
In conclusion, Nicholas Mulila’s unique blend of global experience, innovative vision, and unwavering commitment to the people of Kitui positions him as the ideal candidate to lead the county into a prosperous future. His leadership promises to harness both local strengths and international opportunities, ensuring that Kitui thrives in the years to come.

Senator Kiio’s political career has been characterized by traditional approaches to governance, with limited emphasis on innovation or global engagement. His strategies have not demonstrated the capacity to drive significant economic growth or infrastructural development.
I know this man very well. He is transformative, visionary, industrious, approachable and very philanthropic.
If Senator Wambua could retain his senatorial position and Mulila becomes the governor, Kitui would be the best county in the country.
