Kimani is the only candidate listed for the Kikuyu MP seat in a gazette notice published by the IEBC on Tuesday.
"All Glory and Honour to the Almighty Lord. In serving my Kikuyu people faithfully, I serve my God fulfilling his wish and purpose of my life." The MP tweeted on his official account.
Kimani, who was elected on the now defunct TNA in 2013, was seeking for re-election under the Jubilee party.
He has served as vice chair of the Public Investments Committee (PIC) in Parliament and is considered a prominent public personality in Kiambu’s political circles.
He also is a member of the committee of Powers and Privileges and the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Co-operatives in Parliament.
Ichung'wa was vocal in challenging Kiambu Governor William Kabogo's leadership and is considered to be eyeing the governor seat in 2022.
The 40-year-old studied at Strathmore’s school of Accounting and graduated from the University of Nairobi with an Honours degree in Economics.
