I am spending Sh. 40 million in my Lang’ata campaigns

Former radio presenter turned politician Jalang’o has revealed that he is aiming to spend up to Sh. 40 million in his bid to capture the Lang’ata parliamentary seat.

“It is not about handouts or anything like that, but for a well-oiled campaign, it would easily cost about Sh. 30 million to Sh. 40 million so that you will be able to move into every single place and articulate your issues,” Jalang’o said.

He added that he will use the Lang’ata campaigns money on expenditures such as like branding, movements and merchandise purchases

Jalang’o also explained that his friends and close allies have promised to fund his campaigns, adding that his main challenge in a bid to capture the seat is contesting against politicians who are aiming to spend even more than this.

“I had my fundraiser in December 2021 in which a few friends put in a good amount of money for me to start my campaigns; and from time to time I have also had support from my constituency in Langa’ta,” he said.

The heavy capital he is investing in the elections has left many people wondering what gains he will be making.
