Bitter campaigns for Ol Kalou parliamentary seat officially end today
Starting last week Thursday, there were minimal government candidate campaigners as Cabinet secretaries and principal secretaries retreated following a public outcry over voter bribery. The UDA campaigns were taken over by politicians from across the country under the coordination of the Nyandarua Woman Representative Faith Gitau. While the UDA candidate Muchina Nyaga was accompanied by chief campaigners to churches and later a football match at Kamptain market, other teams were on door-to-door campaigns.
