The saying that birds of the same feather flock, clearly defines the expected alliance between Karungo Thang’wa and his former boss Ferdinand Waititu. The two politicians have once again joined in an effort to lead Kiambu county as a duo. While Waititu is going for the governor’s position the youthful politician is going for the senator’s Seat.

Both Waititu and Karungo were impeached by the county assembly barely months from each other. Karungo who was impeached first was accused of Embezzlement of funds and abuse of office. Waititu was also impeached over similar allegations.

After his impeachment unlike Waititu Karungo went underground to try and formulate new business ideas. his time alone was however disrupted after he joined Kiunjuri’s led party The Service Party (TSP). the youthful leader was the secretary general of this party and even vowing to be a life long member of the party.

It seems that his political statements means very little after he decamped to UDA. during his speech while accompanying the deputy president Thang’wa indicated that he will be seeking the UDA’s party ticket to the senate.
