KENYA 2017!!! I am prepared for David and Goliath fight in 2017

Mumias ACK Diocese Bishop Beneah Salala talks about his intentions to unsit the incumbent Matungu Constituency Member of Parliament in the next general elections.
After 30 years of church service, outspoken ACK Bishop Beneah Salala of Mumias Diocese feels he could contribute even more to the society by joining politics.
Salala is categorical that he is not joining politics to seek wealth or fame, but to develop Matungu constituents.
The bishop was among the group that fought for establishment of the constituency in 1996 after part of Mumias was hived off to form Matungu.
In an interview with The Standard on Sunday, Salala said he is banking on well-wishers and friends to facilitate his campaigns.

ACK Bishop Beneah Salala now joins politics
He said he is not expecting to have an easy time ousting the sitting MP, David Were, but he believes his contribution to the constituency for 14 years as a cleric will give him an edge.
Were recently decamped to Jubilee Party, whose ticket he will use to seek a fourth term.
Salala is a known political commentator and educationist and he is not the only cleric who has joined politics in Kakamega County.
Bishop Titus Khamala of Cornerstone Ministry in Kakamega tried his hand in politics in the 2013 polls. He is set to make a second stab on Lurambi parliamentary seat after he was defeated by current MP Raphael Otaalo.
Salala acknowledges that it will take more than hard work for a first timer to outwit Were, considering that he has been in power for about 15 years. Were won the seat in 2013 on a ticket of New Ford Kenya, which was dissolved to form JP.
It remains to be seen how he will manoeuver around and beat his opponents on a JP ticket in a constituency that is perceived to be an Opposition stronghold.
Salala, who announced he will contest for the seat on Amani National Congress (ANC) ticket, revealed that scores of educationists and the business community in the constituency have thrown their support behind him.
