Endorsing Ole Kamwaro

Gachagua noted that Kamwaro lost by a small margin to someone he had personally supported in the past, but now that Kamwaro has his full backing, he believes victory will come easily.
“Mimi Naona watu wa Narok ndio turidishe mashamba yenu; nataka mnipatie wanaume Kamili kama mimi. Mtanipatia, huyu Ole Kamwaro ndio alirudisha Shambala ya Mau, sindio? Lakini last time hakupata kwa sababu hakuwa na kura ya jamii yangu. Ole Kamwaro anatosha hatoshi,” Gachagua added.
Gachagua concluded by saying that with leaders like Ole Kenta and Ole Kamwaro, he will join forces with them to ensure that all the land belonging to the Maa people is returned.
“Huyu kenta na ole kamwaro tukishikane na yeye mashamba ya wamasai itarudi,”
