A supremacy battle is taking shape in the Machakos senatorial by-election scheduled for March 18 as key political figures seek to stamp their authority in the region.
Stakes are high as Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka seeks to recapture the seat his party lost to Chama Cha Uzalendo (CCU) in 2017 after former Senator Johnstone Muthama declined the party’s direct nomination to defend his seat.
Wiper has nominated Muthama’s former wife Agnes Kavindu to vie in the by-election.

The battle for the Machakos senatorial seat that fell vacant following the death of Boniface Kabaka has kicked off in earnest. This comes barely a week before the official campaign calendar outlined by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
Yesterday, leaders from Wiper, Maendeleo Chap Chap and Grand Dream Development Party trooped to churches to rally support for their candidates.
Maendeleo Chap Chap flagbearer Mutua Katuku and Wiper candidate Agnes Kavindu Muthama attended separate church services, with the parties’ leaders drumming up support for their candidates.
