Gospel singer and activist Reuben Kigame has announced his intention to run for president in Kenya's 2027 General Election. He plans to officially launch his campaign in a few weeks, emphasizing a focus on character-driven and ethical leadership.

• Kigame was barred from the ballot in the 2022 presidential race by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
• His campaign will center on "character-driven" leadership, extending beyond the presidency to all levels of governance, including MCAs, Women Reps, MPs, and Governors.
• Kigame first entered elective politics in 2013, contesting the Vihiga gubernatorial seat, where he placed fourth.
