Tuesday, February 16, 2021 -Amani National Congress ANC Party received a major boost in Matungu Constituency race after three bigwigs threw weight behind their candidate.
In a press brief address issued today Tuesday February 16, Retired Major Suleiman Sumba led a huge KANU delegation to rally support for the ANC Party candidate Mr. Oscar Peter Nabulindo who is largely touted as a threat to rivals.
Mr. Sumba observed that, as per the ratings, Nabulindo was above the rest and to make this journey a success, there was need to rally more support behind him.
He promised to make sure all KANU supporters from the area vote Nabulindo when the by-election will be conducted on March 4th.
Sumba also disclosed that apart from KANU, ANC was receiving support from Mosses Wetang’ula’s led Ford Kenya and Kalonzo Musyoka’s Wiper Party all who are slated to pitch camp in the area from Wednesday with a series of mega rallies before they head to Machakos.
“We are here in the spirit of the BBI and we all need to be honest with each other that this contest, apart the running candidates, it is also meant to test the 2022 presidency,” Sumba stated.
On his part, Mr. Nabulindo condemned those causing chaos in the area and called upon the electoral body IEBC to seek reinforcement from relevant authorities so that those found culpable can be prosecuted.
He also asked the Wafula Chebukati-led commission to conduct a free and fair election so that voters can get justice after they cast their votes.
This was happening as party leaders comprising KANU chairman Gideon Moi, Mosses Wetang’ula and ANC’s Musalia Mudavadi were in Kabuchai Constituency jointly campaigning for the Ford Kenya candidate Mr. Joseph Wekesa Kalasinga.
