The face of KTN's Jicho Pevu has quit his job to seek his fortunes in the political arena. Kenyans have reacted to this move by Mohammed Ali.

Mohammed Ali yesterday announced that he has officially made a foray into the murky world of politics. This is after hinting about it for months.

"1st March 2017. Today I officially declare that I am in the race to be the next Member of Parliament for Nyali Constituency. I have stood up for you for over a decade, and used my voice to amplify yours. Now, I ask you to stand with me. Inside the National Assembly, there is a quote that says "For the just government of men." Yet Justice has fled from that once honourable house. Help me take Justice to their doorstep. Whatever you can contribute will go a long way to helping me on this journey."

The post also asked his fans to help fund raise for his campaign expenses.

Kenyans reacted to his move from the media arena to the political field.

Onchiri Og Mohammed..bro go for it i support you all the way even though am far away here in Armenia. Through which party ticket will you be pushing you agenda?

Zalfa Jepng'etich For true you did good work! I just hope when you get to parliament, they will not dilute your,power! And enthusiasm that you showed over time! For raising funds look for a proper way no one will believe the use of Facebook to raise funds! Remember there are crooked people, who can use Fb to raise money! So I would say no money on this account hard to believe it's yours!?
