Mdomo Baggy Gives Politics a Second Shot
After trying his luck at politics in 2007 and failing to clinch the 2007 Kamukunji seat, comedian Mdomo Baggy is set to give politics a second shot. This time vying on the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) ticket, Mdomo Baggy is upbeat that he will clinch the seat.
He believes that he will win the elections as there are all indications. “I have worked very hard, constantly on the ground; I have fought so hard for the new constitution. This is because I am a believer in African renaissance,” remarks Mdomo Baggy. He says that he could not make it in 2007 since his party was still young.
Mdomo Baggy however says that he will not quit comedy in the event that he wins the Kamukunji seat. “I think I still have a lot of contribution in the comedy world whereby I’ll be setting policies, as both a politician and a comedian,” revealed Mdomo Baggy. He also added that he will be on forefront at the policy level where he will put forth tangible policies as well as develop standards.
“And of course I will nurture new talents; I want to see other Mdomo Baggys emerging,” concluded the comedian. Mdomo Baggy was speking to Edward Qorro (the Beat reporter).
