Popular Kenyan journalist and CNN correspondent Larry Madowo has turned down requests for him to run for president of Kenya in the 2027 general election.
In response to an X user who suggested he should consider running for president, Madowo refused, despite encouragement from his followers. "Has anyone thought about Larry Madowo being President of Kenya?
He can be amazing," the X user posited.
To which Larry replied, "Immediately No!" Madowo did not provide any clear reason behind his refusal but seemingly pointed out being on the receiving end of constant criticism, such as that directed to President William Ruto, as a cause for rejecting to vie.
