SUGAR LAND, Texas — Saturday, Kenneth Omoruyi, CPA, launched his campaign for Fort Bend County Judge at the Museum of Natural Science in Sugar Land, drawing a crowd of elected officials, community leaders and supporters.
The event featured appearances by Fort Bend County Treasurer Bill Rickert, County Clerk Laura Richard, and County Republican Party Chairman Dr. Bobby Eberle, as well as a mix of current and former mayors and city council members. Among them were Sugar Land Mayor Carol McCutcheon and Missouri City Mayor Robin Elackatt, signaling what organizers described as broad, bipartisan interest in Omoruyi’s candidacy.
Radio personality Sam Malone served as master of ceremonies for the evening, while one of Texas’ most recognizable business leaders, Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale, delivered a high-profile endorsement.
“Kenneth Omoruyi represents the principled leadership Fort Bend County needs,” McIngvale said. “His background as a CPA and his dedication to fiscal responsibility and transparent governance make him the right choice to guide our county forward.”

In his remarks, Omoruyi outlined a platform centered on what he called “PPP” — public infrastructure development, public safety enhancement and public emergency preparedness. He pledged to lead with “Grace, Accountability, Transparency and Efficiency,” while emphasizing his background as a Certified Public Accountant to address the county’s budget and long-term growth.
“I am running to bring economic growth that creates jobs, ensure good governance that respects our values, and implement generational planning that prepares Fort Bend County for sustainable growth — all while preserving what makes our county special,” Omoruyi told supporters.
The campaign launch closed with a standing ovation, setting the stage for what observers expect to be a closely watched race in the upcoming election cycle.
