“Lean and Thirsty Boys” Unleashed as Kitui MPs Begin Kwova Kura Mission — 2027 Drums Rolling Early!

There is drama, laughter, and a fair share of confusion in Kitui County as local MPs release their “lean and thirsty boys” — a squad of energetic political hustlers armed with nothing but slogans, smartphones, and bottomless thirst for campaign action. These young men have declared 2027 officially open, turning markets, funerals, and even church fundraisers into mini-political rallies. As one villager quipped, “You can’t even buy airtime in peace before someone asks which side you’re on!”

The boys, often seen rocking designer shades and cheap colognes, have mastered the art of kwova kura (vote hunting) with unmatched enthusiasm. They show up everywhere — from boda stages to watering points — spreading political gospel with the same energy DJs use to hype up a crowd on Friday night. Rumour has it that some even carry portable Bluetooth speakers, ready to blast campaign jingles at a moment’s notice!

Observers jokingly note that these self-appointed “commandos” of Kitui politics may not have salaries, but they’re fuelled by pure passion — and occasional “lunch money.” As one elder sighed, “We don’t know if these boys will deliver votes or just confusion, but at least they’ve brought entertainment before the real campaigns begin!”
