Siaya Governor Cornel Rasanga says he will only support a "transparent" successor who has not been "on my neck working for my downfall". Rasanga said he will rally behind a candidate who as always supported his government during his two terms. Many people want him to take over ODM leader Raila Odinga's position after he leaves active politics. Other names mentioned as Rasanga's successor include Wandayi, former Rarieda MP Nicholas Gumbo and Cabinet Secretary Raphael Tuju. Gumbo has indicated that if he doesn't get a direct ODM ticket, then he will run on another party's ticket for governor.
