What you need to know:

  • Set to be held in July, this will be the third televised presidential debate after the 2013 and 2017 polls.
  • The electorate to get opportunity to listen to the candidates and their priorities once they ascend into office.

Media stakeholders in Kenya have named a team to organise the 2022 presidential and running mate debates set to be held in July this year, with a call to contenders not to miss the events. 

Speaking during the launch of the 2022 Presidential Debates, Media Owners Association Chairman Stephen Gitagama said the team will also have the representation of senior editors.
