Top business executive seeks help from political networks to save his palatial home

A first-term governor seems to have resigned to his fate after his attempt to win over a group of political influencers failed. Insiders say the county leader spent millions of shillings trying to persuade the group, but they supposedly rejected his efforts, accusing him of allegedly mismanaging the county and neglecting them after the last elections, only to reach out now as campaigns approach. The group reportedly rebuffed him, vowing not to support his re-election and instead back his opponent, whose popularity continues to grow ahead of the polls.
