Agano party presidential candidate David Mwaure Waihiga has conceded defeat ahead of the official announcement of Tuesday’s presidential election results.
Waihiga, who has been trailing fourth in the presidential contest, also endorsed Kenya Kwanza’s opponent William Ruto at a press conference in Nairobi on Sunday, August 14, 2022.
“As we concede we also endorse the winning friend and the person of his Excellency William Ruto and urge IEBC to be fervent in declaring his win when it’s time to do so,” Waihiga said.

He said he chose to back Ruto because his manifesto aligns with that of the Agano party.
“We agree with him on the need to ensure Kenya remains a God-fearing nation. We also agree with him on his pursuit to ensure freedom of worship for all faith is maintained and his promise to ensure the church and other faith are protected,” he added.
