By JOHN NGIRACHUMore by this AuthorThe electoral commission has put off repeat presidential poll in four counties in Nyanza citing security challenges. IEBC Chairman Wafula Chebukati on Thursday said voting had failed to take off in Kisumu, Migori, Homa Bay and Siaya due to protests staged by supporters of the National Super Alliance. The repeat poll, Mr Chebukati said, will now be held on October 28 once security agencies restore order. They have a combined 1,863,182 registered voters – 457,957 in Siaya, 539,593 in Kisumu, 476,932 in Homa Bay and 388,700 in Migori. The postponement of elections is allowed under the Election Regulations.
