Former assistant minister Margaret Wanjiru has resurfaced after months of absence from the political scene.

However, the ex-Starehe MP’s decision to quit ODM less than two months after her son, Steve Kariuki, won the Mathare by-election on the party’s ticket surprised observers. Political analysts and politicians in ODM say all indications are that Wanjiru could be headed to the Jubilee Alliance as she seeks to re-invent herself in Nairobi politics.

She announced her departure from ODM two weeks ago. During an interview, Wanjiru said three political parties had asked her to join them, but noted she would make a decision in two weeks after consultations with supporters.
