Jubilee Party volunteer supporters have begun a campaign to encourage eligible voters in Kericho who did not participate in the August 8 elections to come out in the repeat October 17 presidential poll.

A group comprising various professionals, members of the Myoot Kipsigis Council of Elders and former Members of Kericho County Assembly led by Wilson Soi said they were determined to ensure Kericho remains a Jubilee stronghold.

"There are some eligible voters who for one reason or another did not get to vote during the August 8 elections, but this time round we are going to ensure that everyone comes out to vote and in favour of Jubilee Party," said Dr Soi.
