Njoroge commended Natembeya for stepping aside from his personal presidential aspirations to throw his full support behind Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna's bid under the Linda Mwananchi movement.
Describing his decision as a sacrifice for the greater good of the country, she emphasized that Natembeya’s willingness to champion another leader’s vision showcases rare political humility and strategic foresight.
The public tribute highlights a growing strategic alliance within the Linda Mwananchi political outfit, where both figures now play pivotal, complementary roles. Following his departure from the Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-K), Governor Natembeya appointed Njoroge to head communications for the movement.
Njoroge herself transitioned into the coalition after relinquishing her position in the Jubilee Party and dropping her Nairobi gubernatorial ambitions in favor of Embakasi East MP Babu Owino, positioning her as a central operative within the opposition’s media and messaging apparatus.
Natembeya has committed to traversing constituencies across the Western region to build momentum for Sifuna’s presidential bid ahead of the 2027 General Election.

However, this consolidation faces immediate internal friction following Siaya Governor James Orengo's declaration of interest in seeking the coalition's presidential flagbearer position.
Despite Orengo’s challenge, Natembeya and Njoroge remain steadfast in their backing of Sifuna, maintaining that the Nairobi senator represents the ultimate candidate capable of mounting a formidable national challenge against the ruling administration.
This burgeoning alliance underscores the dynamic realignments shaping Kenya’s political landscape as key leaders consolidate regional bases and streamline messaging architectures.
