Wiper clears Sonko for Mombasa Governor race

Wiper Democratic Movement has cleared former Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko to vie for the Governors seat in Mombasa County.

This comes after the Wiper Democratic Movement cleared him with the Party Leader Kalonzo Musyoka promising to ensure Sonko clinches the seat.

Sonko will be deputised by Kisauni MP Ali Mbogo.

“Our consensus efforts continue to bear fruit. The National Elections Board is very pleased to announce that  Mike Sonko and Hon Ali Mboga have agreed to work together to deliver Mombasa County Governorship,” said Wiper Party.

Kalonzo Musyoka exuded confidence that the party will trounce their opponents in the August polls.

Elsewhere, a group of aspirants under the Azimio One Kenya Alliance from Mombasa County have opposed the call by ODM leader Raila Odinga for six piece voting in the region and country.

The aspirants drawn from wiper party, Jubilee party, KANU and PAA want the Azimio presidential candidate to retract his statement and apologise.
