Deputy President Kithure Kindiki said the broad-based coalition is working hard to ensure candidates sponsored by the alliance emerge victorious in the coming by-elections.
Prof. Kindiki said Kenya Kwanza Alliance and Orange Democratic Movement have agreed to back candidates from either party in the coming polls calling on voters to turn up in large numbers and vote for them.
The DP spoke on Friday during Kasipul Constituency Economic Empowerment Engagement held at SikriVocational Training Centre grounds in Oyugis, Homa Bay County.
“We have all agreed to work together and fully support all our broad-based candidates in the coming by-elections. The agreement signed by President Ruto and late ODM leader Raila Odinga has allowed us to
support candidates sponsored by either of our parties,” Prof. Kindiki stated.
The by-elections are slated for November 27 and will be held in a number of electoral areas including in Kasipul, Ugunja, Malava, Mbeere North, Banisa and Magarini constituencies.
The vacant Baringo Senate and several MCA seats will also be filled on the same day.
Prof. Kindiki said ODM candidates in Kasipul, Ugunjaand Magarini enjoy the full support of the broad-based coalition. It is the same for UDA aspirants in Malava, Banisa, Mbeere North and Baringo.
In Kasipul, the ODM candidate, Mr. Boyd Were, is carrying the coalition’s flag.
“We are one team and here in Kasipul we are fully supporting the ODM candidate. We are also doing the same in Ugunja and Magarani as well as in all the areas where UDA candidates are carrying our flags,” he affirmed.
