The grassroots elections have drawn a lot of interest, with political bigwigs pulling out all the stops to ensure their allies are elected in the wards to boost their chances of becoming party officials at the constituency, county and national levels.
At the weekend, Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja, who is eyeing the county chairmanship, met with some of the delegates elected at the polling centre level.
Politicians in the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA) are holding secret meetings with ward delegates elected in the just-concluded grassroots party elections.
This comes amid intensified campaigns for constituency and county delegate seats, whose contests involving governors, MPs and those eyeing various positions in the 2027 polls will be decided by ward delegates, hence the battle to court their support.
