Politics
In the 2013 general elections, Mvurya ran for Kwale governorship on an ODM ticket with Fatuma Achani as his running mate. His rivals were James Dena, Kassima Rigga Mambo, Simeon Mwero Mkalla and Mwarapayo Mohammed Mwachai. Mvurya won by more than half the votes cast.
In May 2014, Mvurya ousted Nairobi governor Evans Kidero to become vice chairman of the Council of Governors. On 29 September 2014 while at a rally with Raila Odinga in Kinango, Mvurya and Odinga were attacked by an elderly man who hit them on their backs with a stick.
The security detail at the rally quickly subdued the man who was later released after it was established that he was mentally unstable. After several months of speculation, Mvurya announced in September 2016 that he was leaving ODM and that he would run on a Jubilee Alliance ticket in the 2017 general elections.
His deputy, Fatuma Achani, had cited interference from other county chiefs in Kwale politics. Rumors had also been rife that senior officers in ODM had conspired to deny him the 2017 ODM ticket for what they termed as his refusal to be loyal to them and also for working with Jubilee.
On 30 August 2017, Kenya’s Council of Governors agreed to elect Mvurya as the Council’s Chairman.
