The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has gazetted former Kiambu Governor Ferdinand Waititu among candidates seeking to replace impeached Nairobi Governor Mike Sonko.
On Tuesday, the electoral commission published his name among 12 independent candidates seeking to vie for the vacant seat.
However, the electoral agency is categorical that publication of the names of aspirants does not mean that a candidate has been cleared to contest in an election.
Other independent candidates include Raymond Ndungu, Jasiel Njau, Evans Machoka, David William, Jimal Ibrahim, Dr Noah Migudo, Aloys Lavern, Mukundi Mathenge, Munyanya Yassin, Timothy Ayieko and Phyllis Wangari.
Other candidates announced by IEBC include; Dennis Waweru, Agnes Kagure, Betty Adhiambo, Alex Kipchirchir and Habib Omar who will be battling out for jubilee ticket during party primaries slated for January 9th.
