Ford Kenya will conduct grassroots elections from August as the top leadership embarks on countrywide meetings to evaluate performance in the last elections.

Party leader Moses Wetang’ula said the exercise will be conducted in clusters to fill vacant positions.

 Mr Wetang’ula said this is part of strategies to revitalise the party ahead of 2022 elections.

Speaking when he met with Trans-Nzoia County party officials in Kitale, the Bungoma Senator noted that different dates have picked for elections for each cluster.

“We have classified regions in clusters and our party grassroots elections will begin in August and we will start with Mombasa,” he said.

He also said plans to emerge Ford-K and Amani National Congress are on.
