The Wier Democratic party candidate Hon Agnes Kavindu Muthama has taken an early lead in the Machakos Senatorial by-election according to the UDA Party results live stream. Agnes Kavindu has opened the gap with over 70% of the votes counted leaving his closest rival Urbunas Ngengele of UDA with a paltry 26%.
The voting saw the turn out if voters following covid 19 containment measures announced by the President recently. The campaigns were stopped following a rise in the number of covid 19 infections in the country.
There has been also allegations of voter bribery where some residents were reportedly arrested in connection with the same.
The UDA party has an opportunity to stamp their presence in the country if they win in Machakos. Especially being the county where the party Chairman Hon Johnstone Sakaja comes from.
What is your take on these results? Do you think the UDA party is ripe to wrestle for the presidency of this country?
