In Todays article of Kenya-Today under the headline of Top 10 most powerful politicians to follow in 2015 One Junet Mohamed from Suna East constituency is listed as No 3 after Raila Odinga and Hassan Ali Joho respectively. The writer passionately says The democrat from Suna East is a fast-rising legislator in ODM owing to the unique dynamics of South Nyanza politics. Both a maverick campaigner and parliamentary debater. He further goes ahead describing his closeness to the party leader of ODM and Kenyas Opposition leaders an enigma of Kenyas politics.The writer says Hon. Mohammed is quiet but influential figure around the ODM party leader as he is believed to be part of the inner sanctum of ODM power. With unfettered access to the party leader,Junnet is set to be even more influential after being propelled to ODM’s Director of Elections, a new post with significant political weight as he will determine who gets the Orange Party’s certificate and who does not. And with South Nyanza in turmoil, with most legislators pussyfooting about their loyalty, often penduluming between Raila and Kidero, some going as far as cozying with the Jubilee regime, Junnet is seen as a stable politician. He is also a first rising somali voice, a critical constituency that is swing to 2017 elections.
