Kiharu Member of Parliament Ndindi Nyoro has called for the criminalization of proxy investments and the mandatory public declaration of wealth for political leaders, particularly those aspiring to the presidency, ahead of the 2027 General Election. Nyoro suggested that the assets of current leaders should be reviewed upon leaving office, with a cap placed on the transfer of assets to associates and former leaders for a period of 25 years.
He argued that leadership should not primarily be used to accumulate personal wealth, citing Kenya's public debt and the need to protect strategic natural resources. Nyoro's proposals stem from his recent political shift from the United Democratic Alliance to the People's Party of Kenya, with him joining the latter following discussions with Kenyans and opposition leaders.
He emphasized the need for transparency in wealth and investments among presidential candidates, urging a move towards open and accountable leadership.
