William Gitau Biography
Born on April 4, 1961 in Komothai village in Githunguri, Kabogo attended St George’s Ruiru Primary School, then Thika Technical School between 1975 and 1978 before joining Punjab University, India, for a bachelor of commerce degree.
Kabogo burst into the political scene in 2002 when he contested for the Kanu ticket for Juja Parliamentary Seat (Uhuru Kenyatta was then Kanu’s presidential candidate) and lost to incumbent Stephen Ndichu. He immediately decamped to the little known Sisi Kwa Sisi party and went ahead to defeat Ndichu in the general elections. Kabogo unsuccessfully defended his seat during the 2007 when he lost the seat to George Thuo. He successfully petitioned the election of Thuo and when the by-election was called, he buried his political nemesis with a landslide victory on a Narc-Kenya ticket.
In 2013 Kabogo contested and won the Kiambu Gubernatorial Elections to become the 1st Governor of Kiambu County. In 2017, however, he lost the seat to Ferdinand Waititu after failing to grasp the Jubilee Party ticket, which then considered pivotal to the success of candidates, particularly in Kiambu County, Uhuru Kenyatta’s backyard. In hindsight, therefore, his attempt to win the seat by contesting as an independent candidate was futile.
He won the governorship in the March 2013 general election. He is the immediate former Juja MP which he won in the 2010 by-elections trouncing Alice Wambui of Kenya National Congress who was distant second, while the previous MP, George Thuo of PNU was left third. In 2017 he lost the jubilee ticket and conceded defeat way before the results were announced.
He was defeated by his bitter rival Ferdinand Waititu for the Jubilee gubernatorial ticket in 2017 and thereafter quit the Jubilee Party and declared that he would run as an independent candidate.
