Tabitha Karanja, the CEO of Keroche Breweries, has won the Nakuru Senatorial ticket in the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) primaries.
Tabitha defeated five other candidates in the recently concluded party primaries, receiving 98,439 votes to her closest challenger Daniel Gichanga’s 12,240 votes.
Andrew Yatich, a former civic leader, came in third with 8,043 votes.
Liza Chelule, who is seeking a second term, was elected as the woman representative.
Chelule received 86,340 votes, followed by Jenniffer Kajuju with 56,022 votes and Flora Kiprop with 25,955 votes.
Votes cast in Kuresoi North and Kuresoi South constituencies that had not yet been delivered to the county tallying center were not included in the declared results.
She promised to work with those who lost the nominations saying that this will ensure every vote remains within the camp against the opponents in the August general elections.
“A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. We have just begun our success journey collectively and we are destined for greatness. My Salutations to our UDA party leader H.E Dr. William Ruto, election Board and officials who sacrificed their time to deliver this nomination in a peaceful manner. Asante sana!! I will hoist the UDA flag high with pride and affection,” said Tabitha.
