The Radio Exit
On October 7, 2021 Jalang’o said that his last month at Kiss will be in February 2022.
“First things first, February 9th will be my last day on the radio so that I can focus on politics, that is a transition we have already arranged,” he said, adding that he would also step back from running his private businesses.
Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) set February 9th as the deadline for public officers to resign if they intend to vie in the upcoming elections.

The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) said that it would not approve candidates who will have breached this requirement.
In preparation for the elections, Jalas has formally filed a deed poll to change his name from Felix Odiwuor to Jalang’o Jalang’o.
On July 15, 2021 Jalas was handed the life membership certificate by the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party Secretary General Edwin Sifuna an affirmation that he will vie for the seat on an ODM ticket, but only if he wins the nominations.
