  "account": "Kisii County's Jubilee aspirants have united behind former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i's presidential bid ahead of the 2027 General Election. Under the Linda Matiang'i movement, they pledge to mobilize support for Matiang'i and Jubilee candidates from local to national levels. Morara Kebaso, a Borabu MP aspirant, expressed their intent to secure more than 100 parliamentary seats for Jubilee and ensure Matiang'i has a strong presence in Parliament. Kebaso urged residents to vote for Jubilee candidates, warning against leaders making disparaging remarks about the community's size. Nyamira senatorial candidate Adam Mochenwa stated the movement would continue promoting Matiang'i's campaign to secure overwhelming support from the Kisii community. Michiira Nyanwaro highlighted Matiang'i's nationwide tour to build grassroots support. The mobilization effort intensifies as political parties and aspirants gear up for the 2027 General Election through grassroots campaigns and realignments.",
