Keya who is Lurambi MP said no party MP was backing Khalwale’s re-election as claimed by those in Khalwale’s camp adding all party MPs will campaign for Shinali. He said the party will adopt a multi-pronged approach to the campaigns for the by-election slated for May 23.
He said party MPs will hold different rallies across the constituency between May 7 and May 14 before conducting a second round in the last week of the campaigns.
The IIEC has already cleared three candidates for the by-election. The Ikolomani seat fell vacant after the High Court in Kakamega nullified Bonny Khalwale's 2007 election.
The commission has cleared Khalwale on New Ford-Kenya candidate and Collins Matemba will run on a Ford-People ticket. Returning Officer Benjamin Tarus said the official campaign period that is to run concurrently with ongoing voter education starts on May 1 and end on May 21 campaigns.
The media in Kenya is so blatantly biased in favor of R. Odinga and ODM its ridiculous. If the Odm man had won they[ the standard and the nation] would be all over proclaiming Odinga's victory and his influence and how invincible he is.When Khalwale won they dismiss odm loss as a mere coincident.They are quick to print the results of the sham[ bogus] and unscientific political polling to fool the public ati Rao is popular
