Can Governors run as independent candidates? Section 85 of katiba appears to exclude them and President from doing so!
85. Eligibility to stand as an independent candidate
Any person is eligible to stand as an independent candidate for election if the person –
(a) is not a member of a registered political party and has not been a member for at least three months immediately before the date of the election; and
(b) satisfies the requirements of--
(i) Article 99 (1) (c) (i) or (ii), in the case of a candidate for election to the
National Assembly or the
Senate, respectively; or

county assembly.

Wrong forever on the throne
