Parties unleash top guns for homestretch impact

THE STANDARD ANC leader Musalia Mudavadi campaigns for Oscar Nabulindo at Bulimbo in Matungu constituency. [Benjamin Sakwa, Standard] Major political parties have unleashed their top guns in Matungu and Kabuchai constituencies as campaigns for the by-elections enter the homestretch. Top party officials and MPs from Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), Ford Kenya, Amani National Congress (ANC) and United Democratic Alliance (UDA) have pitched tent in the two constituencies to drum up support for their candidates ahead of the Thursday polls. Matungu and Kabuchai seats fell vacant following the deaths of MPs Justus Murunga in November and James Mukwe Lusweti in December.

Why Kabuchai and Matungu mini polls crucial for top rivals

THE STANDARD POLITICS The March 4 by-elections in Matungu and Kabuchai constituencies now appear to be test-runs for top political stalwarts, as they buckle up for next year s General Election. The United Democratic Alliance (UDA), associated with Deputy President William Ruto, has fielded candidates in both mini polls, while the DP has been frequenting Western Kenya to market his presidential bid. Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga’s ODM is also trying its luck in Matungu, despite a major onslaught from its National Super Alliance (Nasa) partner Amani National Congress (ANC), which is backed by Ford-Kenya. While ANC has sponsored a candidate in Matungu, it is backing a Ford-Kenya candidate in Kabuchai, which is Senator Moses Wetang’ula’s base.

Tuju said the vacant parliamentary seats were previously held by Ford Kenya and ANC, parties that are friendly to the ruling party.
