Jubilee Party presidential hopeful Dr Fred Matiang’i is set to host United Opposition principals for a tour of the Gusii region, amidst tensions caused by his campaigns in the Mt Kenya region.

• The tour, focusing on Kisii and Nyamira counties, involves approximately 900,000 registered voters.
• Key opposition figures joining Dr Matiang’i include Mr Rigathi Gachagua, Mr Kalonzo Musyoka, Mr Eugene Wamalwa, Ms Martha Karua, and Mr Justin Muturi.
• This "homecoming tour" follows criticism that Dr Matiang’i has concentrated his efforts in Mt Kenya, with some speculating it's a move to undermine Mr Gachagua, despite Dr Matiang’i emphasizing national unity.
