Sakuye community elders have endorsed Isiolo Governor Mohammed Kuti to run for a second term.
The elders drawn from all the 12 clans on Saturday okayed Kuti's second term bid after a two-day deliberation.
The over 200 elders lauded the governor's development track record noting that the county boss needs another term to accomplish all the works he has initiated.
"We are officially blessing our sole candidate Dr Kuti for his re-election bid, "the elder's spokesperson Isack Kara said.
The elders who delegated to the governor the role of choosing the presidential candidate whom the community will back appealed to other communities residing in Isiolo to also throw their weight behind Kuti.
"We will now move to seek alliances with other communities living in Isiolo such as Borana, Meru, Turkana, Samburu and Somali to ensure that our candidate retains his seat." added Kara
Among candidates who have expressed interest in challenging Kuti's candidature include former Governor Godana Doyo and Ex- Ethics and Anti Corruption CEO Halake Waqo
