Kiambu residents and stakeholders have championed Thika Municipality's City Status Bid, calling it a dream that is long overdue. 

Following a high-level consultative meeting with Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi, the Senate Standing Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations moved to the Mount Kenya University Pavilion earlier today to hear directly from the people of Thika. 

Speaker of the National Assembly, Rt. Hon. (Dr.) Moses Wetang’ula joined thousands of mourners who gathered at the proposed Nyandarua University grounds in Nyandarua County for a memorial service in honour of the late Ol Kalou MP, Hon. David Njuguna Kiaraho.

The solemn service was attended by H.E President William Ruto, Deputy President Prof. Kithure Kindiki, other leaders, clergy, and members of the public. It offered an opportunity to pay last respects to the late MP.
