Скачать или смотреть Hon.Halkano Konso Warns Against Political Sabotage in Marsabit Gubernatorial Race‎

‎Uran Ward MCA Hon. Halkano Konso has sounded the alarm over alleged political sabotage ahead of the Marsabit gubernatorial race, claiming that some leaders are plotting to flood the contest with multiple candidates to derail Saku MP Dido Ali Rasso’s bid. 
‎
‎Speaking in Saku, Konso warned that certain politicians, driven by jealousy and self-interest, are deliberately fronting numerous contenders to confuse voters and weaken Rasso’s chances.
‎
‎He urged Marsabit residents to remain vigilant against such tactics and to prioritize leadership qualities over divisive political maneuvers. 
‎
‎“There are leaders who, out of envy and selfishness, will sponsor multiple candidates just to sabotage a strong contender like Rasso, whom we trust to lead Marsabit. But I urge the people of Marsabit not to fall into this trap and end up losing a capable leader,” said Konso. 
‎
‎He further criticized the deep-rooted culture of clan-based voting, describing it as a "cancer" that has held back the county’s progress. Instead, he encouraged voters to support leaders based on their ability to govern effectively rather than tribal affiliations. 
‎
‎Konso praised Hon. Rasso as a leader of integrity who commands respect both at the national level and among government officials, including President William Ruto. He pointed to a recent event in Isiolo, where Rasso was warmly received by the public, while other leaders faced hostility. 
‎
‎"If you elect the wrong person, they might embarrass you. But Dido Rasso is not one of them. He is a respectable leader, both in Parliament and even before the President. Just recently, when President Ruto visited Isiolo, Rasso was the only leader cheered by the people while others were heckled. That speaks volumes about his stature,” Konso added. 
‎
‎With political alignments taking shape ahead of the 2027 elections, Konso’s remarks highlight growing tensions in Marsabit’s gubernatorial race, setting the stage for an intense battle for the county’s top seat.
