FKF elections: Reuben Kaii elected Nyandarua County Chairman in repeat polls
Reuben Kaii Kabiru is the new FKF Nyandarua Branch Chairman while Charles Gitau has been elected as the branch executive secretary in an election held at the Ol-kalou’s NG-CDF offices.
To clinch the seat, Mr. Kaii who will be taking over from
the outgoing chairperson Lucy Kageni (now contesting for National office Vice
chairperson) garnered 13 votes against his sole competitor Joseph Runo Thotho
who got 9 votes.
For the executive secretary’s position, Mr. Charles Gitau
got 13 votes to win the seat against his arch-rival David Ragui who went home
after garnering 9 votes amid allegations of voter bribery and interference.
Though there was a moment of tension after a section of
candidates caused commotion alleging that there was interference from unnamed
influential people forcing security officers to be called in to contain the
situation.
This was a repeat election after the contesters tied during
the polls held on Thursday, forcing the FKF elections board to set another date
for the exercise in order to determine the winners.
