UDA on Sunday conducted ward level elections in Nairobi, Narok, Homa Bay, Busia and West Pokot counties with more 24,000 candidates contesting various positions. Former governors Evans Kidero (Nairobi) and John Lonyangapuo (West Pokot) are some of the big names that have shown an interest in the positions. In West Pokot, the defection of Prof Lonyangapuo to UDA has triggered fierce political battles. At Sero Primary School in Homa Bay Town Constituency, voting went on smoothly despite some hitches. Former Rangwe MP Martin Ogindo, who voted at Sero, said the case was presented before the UDA elections tribunal.
