Following a meeting where Kenya Kwanza principals led by DP Ruto, former VP Musalia, former Foreign Affairs Minister of The Republic of Kenya Wetangula, Dr Boni Khalwale came to a decision to drop out of 2022 Kakamega Governor race in favor of ANC’s Cleophas Malala.
Dr Khalwale, who had been the UDA candidate for Kakamega Governor in the 2022 elections released a statement whose gist was captured in this Tweet on his official Twitter handle.
After intensive consultations, soul searching, reading from the script of Michael Kijana Wamalwa & in keeping with my iconic mantra of decisive leadership, I’ve today happily opted to return to National politics leaving Sen Malala to steer Kakamega County as Governor. Thank u all.
Dr Boni Khlawale
