A survey released on Friday has shown that Uasin Gishu Governor Jackson Mandago and Kakamega Senator Boni Khalwale would both lose in their quest for the Governor’s seat if elections were held as things stand now.
The polls also allude to a likely easy win for Joho in Mombasa. It puts the incumbent Kakamega governor Wycliffe Oparanya and independent candidate Bundotich Zedekiah Kiprop alias BUZEKI as front runners in Kakamega and Uasin Gishu. Senator Khalwale does not agree with this poll conducted by Infotrak Research as it shows ODM’s Oparanya in the lead with 68.3 per cent while Ford Kenya’s Khalwale scoops 13.1 per cent, Jubilee Party’s Mabel Muruli trails Khalwale at 1.1 per cent.
The Senator has called out to his Siaya counterpart James Orengo and NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga to intervene and stop the polls body terming it as manipulative against him.
