Nominations for gubernatorial aspirants had been postponed after the party's national elections board summoned Peter Mathuki, Bernard Kiala and Wavinya Ndeti who had earlier been listed as contestants for the party ticket. Mathuki, who is an outgoing East African Legislative Assembly MP has since teamed up with Wavinya, the former CCU party leader as running mate and governor aspirant respectively in a deal brokered last month in the presence of party leader, Kalonzo Musyoka. Kalonzo, who received Wavinya at Wiper headquarters before declaring her and Mathuki as gubernatorial aspirants had said the two agreed to share government on 50-50 basis should they win the August 8 election. Therefore tomorrow's nomination exercise will involve the County Women representative seat where the incumbent, Dr Susan Musyoka will face off with Joyce Kamene Kasimbi. In Masinga constituency, the contest has attracted three aspirants namely Lawrence Maingi, Isaac Muinde and Festus Kisilu.
