Imran...

No Contest!

It is imran but am worried that mariga got 30%. That is too high.

Too many stupid voters or too many tribal voters.

Let's wait for the breakdown in wards and stations. Uhuru won in 1 out of 5 wards I.e. kenyatta/Woodley. The mca is also a jubilee guy.

If mariga takes this ward, it simply means jubilee supporters in Nairobi (mostly kyuks), are willing to support William ruto. A scary scenario.

There are two political animals in Kenya and one has vacated the scene.
WSR is trying to replace the retired Pres to rival the only standing political grandmaster in the country.

Good luck WSR.

Very good show by WSR, under estimate the man at your own peril. He's the real gambler. When Kenyans were voting in the new constitution, he ran the NO campaign almost alone and even though he knew he would not win, that was his barometer. After the dust settled, my guka told me "Ruto ni ndume". I have not taken my eyes off this man ever since. Political realignments have began.

Showing your hand too early is never a good strategy.

Raila is rattled. Never rattle a snake unless you can kill it.

who took it and how was the turnout in woodley

Ruto is not as intelligent as people keep on overestimating him. He is just an individual obsessed with money and has this fear of becoming a chicken seller all over again and that is why he would rather steal or grab than go back to Sugoi a beggar. Two, I find nothing to celebrate here about Ruto's performance. I actual look at it as very dismal. Mariga got 25% of cast votes while the turnout was a low 30% as expected in by elections. Those who voted for Mariga, did so because Ruto was in the race but Baba was not. If there were Presidential candidates on the ballot,the matrix would be different.Rutos votes would remain static or go up marginally while Baba's votes would go up significantly judging by the registered number of 118k voters. Ruto's vote would end up at no more than 10% and that would be a truly worrying figure compared Jubilees performance in 2013 and 2017 in the area. Finally, the resources used here were immense. Can tangatanga replicate that in all Orange and swing counties?

Am also wondering how!!
All the energies and resources spent on a very localized area and see the results..... That is massive failure. Come 2022 and the countrywide need to spread resources and he will be toast. In fact if you ask me I would say that he has been taught a lesson here, and a big one. If he has learnt the lesson that is another thing altogether.
And he has suddenly created some losers out of this... like Mama NYS must be cursing now.

@guka... my opinion is that now he knows that he is done and dusted.
People just dont trust/want him but they had rather keep quiet and wait for the d-day and express themselves. There can be nothing worse to a politician than a populace that is saying, doing or showing nothing but just laying in wait to pounce at the opportune time and without warning. Then it condemns you to almost instant oblivion that you may never recover from.
Only remaining thing is for him to conjure a way of making himself remain relevant post UK.
