Wanjiru, who made the announcement during a Sunday service at Jesus is Alive Ministries, also invited Senator Edwin Sifuna, who is spearheading the Linda Mwananchi breakaway faction of the ODM, and other political leaders to collaborate with the 'K1' party. She stated that Nairobi is ready for meaningful change and her decision to contest for the Nairobi Governor position is not driven by personal ambition but by a call to serve. Her political repositioning follows her resignation from the Nairobi Rivers Commission, where she had served as Chairperson for approximately 20 months.",
