Socialite Amber Ray has recently hinted at a potential entry into politics in the 2027 general elections. This revelation came during an interview with reporters at the recording of Churchill’s comedy show at the Carnivore restaurant over the weekend.
Amber Ray, a prominent figure in Kenya’s entertainment and social media scene, stated that she would consider a political career if she feels divinely guided when the time comes. However, she emphasized that she is not currently ready to take on such a role, even if President Ruto were to offer her a cabinet position.
“At the moment, let’s say President Ruto nominated me for a CS position, no, I wouldn’t accept it. I would decline because it is a very significant role for anyone to hold. For me, I need more time to understand what people need so I can be accountable to them, you understand? Right now, I feel I’m not fully ready, so I can’t accept,” Ray explained.
Amber Ray’s cautious approach highlights her understanding of the gravity and responsibilities associated with political office. She conveyed her desire to ensure she is fully prepared and knowledgeable about the needs of the people before committing to a political role.
“On my part, I always follow visions from above and take steps in due time, so if that time comes and I feel ready and capable, why not give it a try?” she added.
Her husband, Kennedy Rapudo, has expressed his unwavering support for her potential political ambitions. He believes that Amber Ray possesses the capability to make significant changes and positively impact many lives, particularly those of the youth and women.
“Why shouldn’t she enter politics? I’m sure if Amber ventures into politics, she will achieve great things and change many lives, especially the lives of the youth and women. I believe she has the capability to do more,” Rapudo stated.
Rapudo’s confidence in Amber Ray’s potential as a political leader is evident. He emphasized that he is ready to support her whenever she decides to embark on her political journey.
“And I always tell her that whenever she’s ready to start campaigning, she should let me know, and I will ensure everything is in place for that. So, Amber always has my support, along with our family and friends,” Rapudo added.
Amber Ray’s contemplation of a political career comes at a time when more celebrities and public figures in Kenya are considering entering the political arena. Her popularity and influence, especially among the youth, could provide a solid foundation for a successful political campaign if she decides to run in the 2027 general elections.
While Amber Ray remains focused on her current endeavors, her statements indicate that she is keeping an open mind about her future in politics. If she does decide to enter the political fray, her journey will undoubtedly be watched closely by both her supporters and the general public.
For now, Amber Ray continues to navigate her life and career with the same authenticity and transparency that have endeared her to many. Whether or not she will eventually step into the political spotlight remains to be seen, but her willingness to consider it reflects a broader trend of diversification and public service among Kenya’s influential figures.
