Kirinyaga Woman Representative Njeri Maina has urged Gen Z to transition from street protests to seeking elective office to influence policy and governance.

• Maina, who was elected at 27, advocates for youth to seize political opportunities.
• She highlighted former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua's support, noting his contribution of Sh10 million towards bail for arrested protesters and a promise of fair nominations through the Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP).
• The call comes as parties gear up for the 2027 General Election, with youth playing a crucial role as voters and candidates.
