The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) has issued direct nominations to Siaya senator James Aggrey Orengo who is seeking the Siaya gubernatorial seat in the August 9 general elections.
Orengo will face former Rarieda MP Nicholas Gumbo of the United Democratic Movement (UDM) in the race to succeed Cornel Rasanga.
This comes ahead of the ODM’s primaries in Siaya County on Wednesday, April 13, for parliamentary seats, MCAs, and a woman representative.
Branch ODM chairman Oloo Okanda said the party has also cleared East African Legislative Assembly MP Oburu Oginga, Ugunja MP Opiyo Wandayi, and Rarieda MP Otiende Amolo, with the latter two expected to defend their current seats.
“From the information given to me by the party’s National Elections Board (NEB), we will only have primaries for MCAs, Woman Rep and MPs for Bondo, Gem and Alego Usonga,” he said.
The party will hold nominations in Alego Usonga, Bondo, and Gem constituencies in Siaya county for the Woman Representative role as well as for Parliamentary seats.
