TRANS NZOIA, Kenya, Aug, 11 – Former Rift Valley Regional Commissioner George Natembya has clinched the Trans Nzoia gubernatorial seat after defeating his closest opponent, Kiminini MP Chris Wamalwa.
Natembeya was contesting the seat on a Democratic Action Party of Kenya (DAP-K) party ticket while Wamalwa was running on a FORD-Kenya party ticket.
Wamalwa on his Twitter page conceded defeat and congratulated Natembeya on his victory.
“The Elections are now over & the results are out. I have not been successful in my quest to be the second Governor of our great County. I thank the Almighty God, and all my supporters, from both far and near, for their unyielding support. Receive my eternal gratitude,” said Wamalwa.
The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is however yet to make an official announcement on the winner of the political contest.
