Former South Mugirango MP James Omingo Magara who was the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) National Treasurer, has resigned from the party.
Speaking during a meeting with grassroots leaders from Kisii town, the former MP noted that he resigned over the lack of democracy in UDA and had opted to go back to the People Democratic Party (PDP) led by Migori Governor Okoth Obado.
“..my political future and ambitions cannot be sufficiently addressed by the UDA party. I therefore immediately resign as a party member and as a treasurer,” he said in Kisii.
Earlier on Sunday, Magara dismissed claims circulating on social media that he had ditched the party where he termed the claims as propaganda being spread by his political enemies.
“I’ve seen with dismay messages and propaganda circulating all over social media with unsubstantiated messages attributed to me. Kindly ignore all rumours, I am a man of principle and will communicate through my handles,” he said.
Magara is eyeing the Kisii gubernatorial seat during the August 9 polls at the expiry of the two-year term of the incumbent James Ongwae.
