HON JAMLECK KAMAU: WHY HE'S THE GOVERNOR MÛRANG'A CITIZENS WANTS IN 2022.

✒️By the pen of Prof Gîtaû wa Kûngû

It is not by human power but by the grace of Almighty God that Hon Jamleck Kamau (kabisa kabisa), has become a puzzle that power brokers in the nation’s political firmament have found a hard row to hoe. Hon Jamleck remains an enigma that keeps waxing stronger and escaping, in the process, the unceasing traps of his ever mounting socio-political traducers. This unfaltering torchbearer of philanthropic, humble, respectful, credible and unmatched leadership, looks set, to remain for a long time to come, a mystery that fake friends masquerading as his genuine allies, and confessed foes alike will try, albeit unsuccessfully, to unravel in not only Mûrang'a County politics but also in the national political arena.

Hon Jamleck is a respected leader. Despite his unrivaled contemporary vilification by envious political gladiators and parasites, the political general remains the most-sought-after politician and perhaps, one of the few most significant of the progressive hue in not only Mûrang'a and Mt. Kenya region but also nationally. It is not to be forgotten that he was an integral team member in the making and growing of The National Alliance (TNA) party that saw President Uhuru Kenyatta become the fourth president in the Jubilee coalition government in 2013!

The reality, even amongst those whose bile levels of baseless, grudgingly self destructive hatred are naturally high can't help but helplessly find themselves loving Hon Jamleck Kamau. Why? Because he has become a veritable political brand that can be ignored only at the peril of any noteworthy politician in the region including president Uhuru Kenyatta and his government, the incumbent county 021 governor Mwangi Wa Iria, his PA. and 2022 Kigumo constituency aspirant Mr. Muturi Karanja among other notable leaders. It is his credibility and revolutionary leadership style that made former president H.E. Emilio Mwai Kibaki government make him Minister for Nairobi Metropolitan when he was the best MP Kigumo constituency has ever had. He's the man who brought modern traffic lights and street CCTV system in now Nairobi county. 

History verifies that when Jubilee government sought for the Kenyan to lead the Tana River Development Authority (TARDA), Hon Jamleck was the fittest Kenyan for the roles and responsibilities of the top office running TARDA. That shows how purposefully powerful has, so far, been to our national and community polity. The indisputable political general and humble philanthropist has faced fears, betrayal and treachery but at the end of it all remain undaunted. 

This can be verified beyond considerable doubt in reference to his official public declaration for being in the race to become the next governor of Mûrang'a County after being constantly pressed by Mûrang'a County citizens of all walks on Saturday, 22nd May. This was during the opening/dedication ceremony of Mama Blessings new house he volunteered to put up after a fire accident that torched her former house, razed, burnt her youngest daughter Mwikali (RIP) to death and burnt her firstborn child, Blessing, just less than two weeks prior. The family now has a roof over their heads.

 His close friends who had accompanied him promised to take charge of Baby Blessings education too in respect to Hon Jamu's love to  enlighten and support the lowly in the society. It was his 31st house to put up for the economically downtrodden and victims of natural calamities like landslides and fire accidents across Mûrang'a County. Glory be to God! May Almighty never cease replenishing Hon Jamleck each day. Blessings to him!

Now,  today, in our political firmament, Hon Jamleck has become a political brand whose name, most politicians will deploy to win support at national and county levels during the next general elections (2022) electioneering periods. Previously, Hon Jamleck had not officially declared his 2022 ambition; it was widely insinuated he might choose to vie for the Kigumo MP or Mûrang'a County governor until n the aforementioned event, the PA to the incumbent but outgoing governor Wa Iria; Mr. Muturi Karanja, who was in attendance, was unanimously challenged by the public to officially declare his Kigumo MP 2022 aspiration. But he withheld. I quote in translation,; Mr. Karanja: "I shall not declare my aspiration until Hon Jamleck first officially declares. If he declares to run for governor, who am I to block? Still if he announces to vie for Kigumo MP, I will respectfully support him! His word will be final and I will support it!"

 Now, the question to ask any aspiring politician seeking public office in Mûrang'a County to determine his prospects or seriousness is: Have you been endorsed by Hon Jamleck or not? That is how politically turbulent the Kabisa Kabisa phenomenon is in the region and probably beyond.

I have keenly observed how despicable political ignoramuses deride him; the grovelers of centrist conservative elements impugn his character, but that is Hon Jamleck Kamau, the political colossus still standing like Mt Kenya. No doubt, Hon Jamleck has the much needed leadership skills including skills of political liberation and he’s equally imbued with the power of intuition which makes him tower above most adversaries. This man of unquantifiable knack for philanthropy has this uncanny nerve for discovering and mentoring not only leadership but also myriad talents one of which is the incumbent Mûrang'a governor himself HE Mwangi Wa Iria. 

The difference between Hon Jamleck and the rest in the political arena is that he sees possibility where others predict doom. His often-talked-about political superiority complex does not mean haughtiness; although it might appear to be so in the eyes of the mischievous among politicians who want to see it so. Hon Jamleck Kamau (Kabisa Kabisa) feels and commands a higher esteem over the obstacles he desires to surmount and he is blessed with the rare courage of overcoming them, with enough energy reserved for any eventuality.

Hon Jamleck however, must realize that this is not the time to rest on his oars. Things are really tough in Mûrang'a County and like the political magician that we know him to be, he must, once again, step forward and steer this county towards the haven of economic, social and political excellence the people desire to enjoy. Mûrang'a County citizens wholeheartedly wish Hon Jamleck Kamau to advance his "maendeleo kabisa kabisa" proven realistic philosophy and leadership style to progress a sound development of Mûrang'a County into the visionary most developed county in Kenya from, God willing, 2022-2032.
