“Fellow Kenyans …!” – Maraga Calls For Donations For His 2027 Campaign
Former Chief Justice and presidential hopeful David Maraga has asked Kenyans to contribute to his campaign.
Maraga described the effort as a citizen-led movement aimed at improving the country.
In a public appeal, Maraga urged Kenyans to contribute to his campaign, emphasizing that grassroots finance would ensure accountability to the people.
“Fellow Kenyans, I need you to help me reset, rebuild and restore Kenya. I have chosen to run a campaign that is funded by you, ordinary Kenyans,” he said.

According to Maraga, a people-funded campaign belongs to citizens and reflects their interests.
“If my campaign is funded by donations from you, the everyday Kenyan, then it becomes our campaign. And I will be accountable to you,” he said.
“I will be accountable to you, the everyday Kenyan. You can donate any amount. Simply log in to http://davidmaraga.com. Or go to Mpesa Paybill: 4164137 Account Number: 4164137.”
He encouraged supporters to donate any amount through his official campaign platform or via mobile money, pointing out that even small contributions would help to sustain the campaign.
By January 29, the former CJ stated that his presidential campaign had raised Sh7.7 million, as he ramped up early preparations for the 2027 general election.
Maraga disclosed the figures in a statement shared on his X account, where he offered a detailed breakdown of the funds received.
He underscored his commitment to transparency and accountability in campaign financing.
According to the breakdown, Kenyans living abroad emerged as the biggest contributors, accounting for more than Sh6 million of the total amount raised.
“I am deeply grateful to the 1,834 of you who have made a financial contribution to our campaign, with a total of Sh7,745,788. 04 so far,” Maraga said.
“In the spirit of transparent and accountable campaign fundraising, we are embarking with these funds on the #UkatibaCaravan, a country-wide civic education campaign geared towards increasing voter registration among our young people as we aim to meet our target of #GenZ15MillionStrong,” Maraga said.
“Join the #UkatibaMovement by making your financial contribution through M-Pesa, credit card, PayPal or via Stripe at https://donations.davidmaraga.com,” he said.
Maraga has previously indicated that his presidential bid would be largely funded by ordinary Kenyans rather than relying on wealthy individuals or political financiers.
Fellow Kenyans, today is the day.

This reinforces what he has described as a people-driven movement to “Reset, Restore, and Rebuild Kenya.”
The digital platform requires contributors to enter their name, phone number, email address and donation amount, with an option to leave a message of support.
“I am particularly thankful to the Kenyans in the diaspora who have made a significant contribution of more than Sh6 million, which has boosted our efforts immensely,” he added.
The retired Chief Justice said the funds would be used to kick-start a nationwide civic education initiative dubbed the #UkatibaCaravan.
Funds raised will be channelled towards grassroots mobilisation, campaign events and town hall meetings, digital outreach, and the establishment of a national network of volunteers and supporters.
