Candidate announcement
NAIROBI, Kenya, Nov 1 – Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) Secretary General Francis Atwoli has accused Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna of being used by unnamed political forces to divide Western Kenya’s voting bloc and undermine the region’s chances of producing a presidential candidate in 2032.
Atwoli questioned Sifuna’s political intentions, claiming his growing mobilisation in Western Kenya was part of a scheme to weaken the region’s political bargaining power ahead of the 2027 General Election.
“You heard Sifuna the other day telling people from this region not to listen to people like me. And then he is telling people to attend my December 26 meeting in Kakamega and declare support for him.We must ask ourselves, who is using our son? Who has sent him?” he posed.
