The race for the vacant Kibra parliamentary seat is getting hotter as days continue elapsing. As Raila Odinga-led ODM party continues to await its nominations for them to decide on whom will bear its flag, some parties have already unveiled their candidate.
Musalia Mudavadi’s Amani National Congress (ANC) on Wednesday unveiled former Raila’s aide Eliud Owalo as their candidate in the upcoming by-elections.
Just recently, Owalo ditched ODM for ANC in readiness for the race.
Owalo will face Jubilee and ODM candidates in the November 7, 2019 mini polls.
ODM will unveil its candidate after their nominations that have been scheduled for Saturday 31st.
The ruling Jubilee party will also unveil its candidate once it settles its matters regarding the same. The party through its Secretary General Raphael Tuju on Monday disowned a letter bearing the list of aspirants that had been submitted to IEBC.
It has not submitted another list. The disowned list bore the names of soccer star McDonald Mariga, Morris Peter Kinyanjui, Walter Trenk, Said Ibrahim and Doreen Wasike.
The Kibra MP seat fell vacant following the demise of Ken Okoth who succumbed to cancer in July.

nothing like Justice in Kenya's electoral body.this greediest must vacate the office
Your Comment : I have now believed that we do not have an independent electoral and boundaries commission , instead we have a congregation of greedy individuals out to misuse Kenyans and bring chaos to our country. #Remove them. #clean the top leadership.
Congratulations to Governor Mutua,you really deserve to lead in the best performing governors,,, those ranked last should be dealt with accordingly for misappropriating public funds
Raila was the hunter now the hunted... how do trust a hyena like Uhuru.. You both greedy... you dug your grave lie in it... What handshake.. Crap...
Babu aje zake,handshake is for all Kenyans, and Kibra believe in handshake, there4, Uhuru And Raila should have different candidates and whoever Will go through Will be thé product of handshake
Babu waja ukoloni bwana, there's no direct ticket
Hehehe, supporting somebody was not an agreement in the handshake my friends!! Remember Raila caused many to die during the era of maandamano hence Uhuru devised a method how to tame this power hungry man!! Mariga must win
Your Raila and uhuru come from different political party,. Everyone is free to handle his party issues and i salute the president for supporting mariga being the jubilee candidate. Raila is also supporting the odm candidate and no one is against that. Some people are taking handshake as political party while it's not. Please mr mp style up.
