Opposition leader Raila Odinga’s ODM party is not taking chances in its bid to retain Kasipul parliamentary seat as party titans accompanied their candidate Boyd Were to be cleared by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission.

In a show of force and their intent to upset several candidates in the race, deputy party leaders Adulswamad Nasir and Godfrey Osotsi, national chairperson Gladys Wanga and secretary general Edwin Sifuna, held a rally in Oyugis Town after the clearance.
