On May 28, 2022, Martha Karua, the presidential running mate of the Raila Odinga-led Azimio La Umoja coalition, concluded her two-day campaign tour of Nakuru County.

During her tour, Karua addressed roadside rallies at various centres, including Subukia, Kabazi, Maili Kumi, Maili Sita (Kiamaina), Barnabas, Kikopey, Gilgil, and Naivasha.

She was accompanied by a delegation of politicians, including Agriculture Cabinet Secretary Peter Munya, Nakuru Governor Lee Kinyanjui, Nyeri Deputy Governor Caroline Karugu, and Nakuru senatorial hopefuls John Mututho and Lawrence Karanja.

At the rallies, Karua reiterated the coalition's commitment to promoting local manufacturing and creating employment for jobless Kenyans.

However, she emphasized that this goal could only be achieved by first ridding public offices of corrupt elements with an insatiable appetite for public resources.

“But to achieve that we will first rid all public offices of corrupt elements with insatiable appetite for public resources. Ours is a zero-tolerance policy on corruption,” Karua said.
