ACTIVIST MORARA KEBASO QUITS POLITICS

Morara Kebaso, the Inject Party leader and former presidential aspirant, has announced his decision to quit politics, describing the move as a long-awaited personal liberation. In his post on X dated Monday June 23, the Inject Party Leader appeared to suggest his decision to quit his fairly new political career was motivated by the consistent criticism he was often subjected to.
"I’ve finally left politics. Now I can live my life, run my business, make my money, travel the world, see my friends, and visit a bar without worrying about being photographed. I’m free,” Morara declared on X.
Morara, in his social media tirade on Monday, also claimed that he was often misquoted by the media and had to consistently worry about his safety because of his status as a new political figure.
He added, "Nobody can judge me for dancing the ‘wrong’ way or smiling the ‘wrong’ way. I don’t need security. I can drive myself. I no longer have to show up for TV interviews only to be misquoted."
The activist first gained nationwide attention at the back of anti-Finance Bill protests in mid-2024, when he pioneered a new form of government accountability. The activist dedicated his time to touring the country while exposing a string of stalled government projects dating back to the era of former President Uhuru Kenyatta.
