Popular media personality Felix Odiwour aka Jalang\u2019o has hinted at quitting media. <\/p>\n

Taking to social media, the comic stated that he is about to hang his boots but needs to pass the baton to the next \u2018big hit\u2019. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe are about to hang up the boots and take a new challenge. But we can\u2019t just drop the mic\u2026 I need to pass it to the next Jalang\u2019o,\u201d reads part of his message. <\/p>\n

This is the latest development after he announced that he would be vying for the Lang\u2019ata parliamentary seat. <\/p>\n

\u201cI am going to be the next MP for Langata. Youth change your votes. Come and vote for us to build a new Langata. I am campaigning for myself. I am very serious; I am the next MP of Langata. Mark this day!\u201d he said a while back. <\/p>\n

A number of media personalities have already expressed their interest in politics and below we have highlighted a few. <\/p>\n

Tony Kwalanda<\/strong><\/p>\n

The sports anchor, moderator, and influencer recently revealed he will be running for the MCA seat in Manda Shivanga Ward in Malava constituency, Kakamega county. <\/p>\n

He has been on numerous occasions involved in wooing his electorates by building pit latrines at schools and talking to his intended voters in churches, schools, and attending fundraisers for different purposes. <\/p>\n

Alex Mwakideu<\/strong><\/p>\n

Birds of the same feather flock together, or so they say. The dynamic duo of Jalang\u00f3 and Mwakideu was once the ultimate bromance in media. The two are also set to join the political arena at the same time. The Swahili presenter is eyeing the Wundanyi parliamentary seat. <\/p>\n
