Former Labour Cabinet Secretary Kazungu Kambi’s entry into the race for the Kilifi governorship is expected to stir up political activity in the county whose leaders are currently at the centre of investigations over claims of fraud.

Mr Kambi (pictured) has said he intends to vie under a Kadu Asili ticket to clean up the county’s administration as it emerged that more than Sh51 million of the county’s funds could have been stolen from its accounts and channelled to bank accounts of key suspects.
