Hon. Dr. Irene Kasalu is set to make a strong push into the political strongholds of former governor Charity Ngilu and Kitui Central MP Makali Mulu, in a move that is already sending jitters across the political landscape.Kasalu has now toured all eight constituencies in Kitui County, steadily expanding her grassroots presence ahead of the 2027 gubernatorial contest.Her growing visibility is particularly notable within Wiper circles, where her key competitors have yet to match her pace of constituency-level mobilisation, raising questions about whether they have been caught off guard by her early campaign momentum.
