The race to unseat Bungoma Governor Kenneth Lusaka has intensified eight months to the election. The governor’s top political rival is former Kanduyi MP Alfred Khang’ati, who is said to have gained massive support of the Sudi region. Sudi is the southern part of Bungoma county, named after pre-colonial paramount chief Sudi Namachanja. On Sunday, Khang’ati met 300 opinion leaders from Kanduyi and Bumula constituencies in Bungoma town, where they pledged to support his bid. The leaders accused Lusaka of doing little with the more than Sh30 billion the county has received since 2013.
