Kakamega Governor Fernandes Barasa is now calling on Western leaders to unite so that they can realise the dream of leading the country.

The governor spoke in Bumula constituency, Bungoma county on Wednesday during the NG-CDF tournament finals.

Barasa asked former Kakamega governor Wycliffe Oparanya, DAP-K party leader Eugene Wamalwa to unite with National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula and Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi so that they form a strong team that will compete with others.

“We shall only realise our dream of leading this country if we are united,” Barasa said.

He noted that the Mulembe nation is the second largest community in the country but leaders are not united.

“Unity is the only way our numbers can count when it comes to electing the head of state,” he said, adding that in 2032 Luhya community must have a Presidential candidate.

He added, “I will be on the forefront to involve big brothers in unity talks until we are united.”

“Sports is the only future for this country, we must support talented youths so that big teams can scout for them,” Lugari MP Nabii Nabwera said.
