Nairobi — Amani National Congress (ANC) party has appointed lawyer Simon Kamau as its new Secretary General to fill the position that was left vacant since August 2020 when Barrack Muluka resigned.

Gikuru was named the new SG on Thursday in a ceremony presided over by the Party Leader Musalia Mudavadi.

He said Kamau’s appointment is testament that the party is going to work closely with the young people by inviting them on the negotiating table during policy decision making.

Mudavadi emphasized that the largest constituent of Kenya’s demographic consists of the youth and the Party will ensure their challenges are addressed.

“ANC Party has unveiled the youngest Secretary General for a national political party in the country. We want to walk with the youth and ANC is going to become a party of the young people in Kenya. We are sending a strong signal that we are ready and want to incorporate the youth at all levels of leadership and government moving forward,” said Mudavadi.

The ANC boss also emphasized the need for Kenyans to remain peaceful and focused to be able to build a successful future. He called on Kenyans to rally together and walk with him in liberating the country as he positions himself for the 2022 General Election in which he hopes to succeed President Uhuru Kenyatta whose second and final term will end in August.

He further stated that an economic revolution was needed in Kenya citing the heavy public debt and unscrupulous expenditure.
