The Gusii region has voiced growing concerns over underrepresentation in the current national administration. Leaders and residents alike are calling for a stronger political voice, and Matiang’i is being positioned as the figure capable of delivering that influence.

However, not everyone is fully on board. Some leaders from the region have questioned whether Matiang’i can truly unify the country, pointing to his polarizing role during his time in government. This internal division may prove to be a hurdle as he seeks broader national appeal.
