Morara Kebaso Reveals Receiving Ksh. 6M from Kenyans to Support His Presidential Bid

Political activist Morara Kebaso, renowned for his bold aspirations of unseating President William Ruto in the 2027 elections, has revealed that his supporters have so far contributed approximately Ksh.6 million toward his cause.

Morara gained prominence in 2024 through his theatrical impersonations of President Ruto’s speeches and political style, often donning iconic Kaunda suits. Now, he asserts his capability to succeed as the nation’s next Head of State, with his campaign gaining traction among the public.

Drawing parallels to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, Morara dismissed criticism over soliciting public funds for his activism. He emphasized that Trump, despite being a billionaire, reportedly relied entirely on public contributions during his campaigns, a strategy Morara believes fosters accountability and transparency in leadership.

“Donald Trump didn’t spend even 10 USD during his presidential bid, yet he is a billionaire. When the public finances your efforts, they own you, and you become accountable to them,” he explained. “But when you fund the public, the dynamic shifts—you owe them nothing, and they owe you for your contributions. This is why some leaders justify corruption.”

Morara detailed how contributions from well-wishers have financed his national tours aimed at exposing government shortcomings. He outlined the costs incurred, including a public address system and vehicle amounting to Ksh.2.5 million, fuel expenses of Ksh.1.5 to 2 million, and operational costs like staff salaries, furniture, printers, and computers, totaling approximately Ksh.6 million.

Responding to allegations that he might be a front for a hidden political agenda, the 29-year-old dismissed such claims, urging Kenyans to judge his actions over time. “I am not anyone’s project. I am supported by Kenyans who believe in me. If the youth back my bid, I won’t need to sell their votes to anyone,” Morara stated. He called for patience, asserting that consistency will reveal genuine leaders from pretenders.

“Consistency defines true defenders of our nation. Those who persist are genuine; those who falter expose themselves as opportunists,” he added.

As the founder of the Inclusive National Justice, Economic, and Civil Transformation (INJECT) party, Morara expressed confidence in his party’s vision for the nation. He identified Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah as his primary competition in 2027, downplaying the prospects of other political heavyweights like Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka and former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i.

“I have no issue with Kalonzo Musyoka’s candidacy, but he must explain what he plans to achieve that he couldn’t as Vice President. Leadership is about accountability,” he said.

Morara’s unwavering optimism and grassroots support continue to position him as a formidable contender in the race to lead Kenya.
