Former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu is attending the Limuru III conference along with other Mt Kenya leaders.

Kioni and Martha Karua have announced plans for a conference aiming to unite more than 10 political parties from the Mt Kenya region. Their goal is to address the pressing issues that have troubled the community in recent years.

Let’s safeguard ourselves, our community, and our nation,” Karua expressed in a video encouraging residents to attend.
