Azimio headache in Nairobi battle as Kenya Kwanza settles on Johnson Sakaja

The Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya coalition is walking a tight rope as it grapples with the challenge of nominating its flag bearer for Nairobi governor as Kenya Kwanza moves on after making a quick decision on who to pick for the race.

The Raila Odinga-led coalition that has more than 20 parties, also faces similar challenges in Mombasa where aspirants are ready to go for a vicious battle. Apart from political party interests, the grand coalition party also faces the conundrum of satisfying egos and ethnic interests in the cosmopolitan city.
