The United Democratic Alliance has urged Deputy President Dr. William Ruto to withdraw from the presidential debate scheduled for July.
UDA Communications Director Hussein Mohammed said in a statement on Thursday that this was due to media bias.
“We have noted with much concern the repeated and continued bias and propaganda in a section of Kenya’s mainstream media in abuse of statutory,” he said.
“This has been deliberately contravened, ignored and bravely abused by the sections of the media,” he said.
The Kenya Editors Guild, the Kenya Media Owners Association, and the Kenya Media Council have announced that the Presidential and Deputy Presidential Debates will take place before the elections.
Specific dates, as well as the venue and logistics, will be revealed at a later date.
