BUNGOMA SENATE RACE UPDATE. AFTER WETANGULA...

-

By the Specialized Politique communique...

Former Bungoma Senator, Moses Masika Wetangula.

As Kenyans celebrated their 59th Mashujaa Day, the search for the replacement of Hon. Moses Wetang'ula as Senator of Bungoma County continued unabated. Getting someone passionate about the plight of the people of Bungoma is the main agenda not about who the now speaker of the National Assembly will front neither President Ruto's UDA Party.

FORD Kenya party conducted their own predetermined "nominations" through what they called an electoral college and concensus building thus gave the ticket to Hon. Wetang'ula's former aide Hon. Wafula Wakoli. 

UDA party which is the other most popular party in Bungoma, on the other hand, is yet to give the name of their candidate but it is widely believed that the ticket will go to Hon. Walter Mukinginyi Trenk, the Secretary General of Friends of Ruto Movement, a lobby group which campaigned for the election of President William Ruto.

It is still unclear why the candidate who was widely expected to be unveiled on Wednesday was shelved for a later day, but we have since established that it will most likely be done on Monday the 24th. 

After UDA's unveiling of its candidate, the sprint to the finishing line will start taking shape.

So far, three independent candidates have confirmed having submitted their symbols to the IEBC but whether they will end up on the ballot paper will be determined by the aspirants being able to meet the most stringent of requirements which is the collection of two thousand signatures from registered voters from within Bungoma county.

All candidates will be submitting their documents for registration to the IEBC on the 10th and 11th of November after which the campaign period will officially begin.

All eyes on the race, the question of after Wetangula is still clicking loud in the minds of Bungoma electorates. Time will tell!
