What was expected to be an ordinary school election at Tenri Schools Embu has unexpectedly transformed into a full-blown Kenyan-style political showdown — complete with campaign hype, online drama, debate pressure, and viral moments dominating social media timelines

Campaign videos from the school are pulling massive attention online, with Kenyans closely following every move as if it were a real general election.


Among the headline-makers is President Kingsly, the sitting president seeking a second term despite critics joking he is a “one-term president” with “no power, no aura” . The online streets have also been buzzing after claims of alleged voter “bribery” involving snacks surfaced

Team Sally has earned comparisons to fierce political figures, with netizens humorously branding her the “Martha Karua” of the race due to her fiery debate style and serious energy

Meanwhile, Team Vina has not escaped online banter, with some Kenyans cheekily saying they too “hawana power, hawana aura”

But perhaps the biggest online sensation is Team Alo Alo, led by presidential hopeful Allan, currently the fan favorite. Supporters online are so invested that some jokingly want permission to donate campaign vehicles and branded merchandise

With the highly anticipated presidential debate set for Monday, 25th May, all eyes are now on Tenri Schools Embu as Kenyans eagerly await the next chapter of what many are calling the most entertaining school election campaign in recent memory.


One thing is clear: whoever runs Tenri Schools Embu’s social media deserves recognition — because this level of creativity, PR, and campaign strategy has completely captured the nation’s attention.
