Baringo South constituency will be the next battle ground for the Rift Valley political supremacy contest between deputy president William Ruto and Baringo senator Gideon Moi.

Although the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission ( IEBC) is yet to announce the date for  a by-Election-occasioned by the death of area MP Grace Kipchoim, all indications are that  the two politicians are likely to flex their muscles in influencing who will be elected to replace the deceased.
