    Seriously … if you want to beat an inkambent .. you had better be polling at 70% to 30% … hii mambo ya 46/47 sijui 48/45 ni bure kabisa .. Uhuru tano tena … Nasa should be veeeery worried by these polls … If you want to win the belt in a boxing fight, u had better knock out the champ .. dont leave it to the judges … Nasa has left this election to the judges as opposed to knocking out jumbirii .. shauri yao .. time to go home .. aki if that woman has cooked nyeni with ugali again, i will turn things upside down in that house

    Infotrak funding is by NASA. Therefore, one would expect NASA candidate to lead. Ipsos is independent and more dependable. The die has been cast and the fat lady has sung already.

    Wacha ujinga with this peace preaching. An election official is dead because a certain party will stop at nothing to steal or should I say maintain the status quo. A change is as good as a rest.Jubliee imeiba ya kutosha it is time for new leadership. UK needs to go his arrogance and lacklustre attitude towards corruption is costing Kenyans a lot .The time for change is now

      It has been UHURU and RUTO that have been working hard to maintain the Peace in the Country.This is why they are going to come out victorious come 8/8/17.There can be nothing more important in Kenyan Politics than Peace.And Kenyans know it.Nasa leaders and NASA Politics have proven not to be responsible enough to safeguard this very valuable Peace in Kenya.That is why Kenyans are going to continue to Stick with UHURUTO for the sake of Peace and Stability in the Country.

  5. Infotrak is funded by Nasa…
    Infotrak is funded by Nasa and cannot be trusted. Raila will nevet become president.
