On Sunday, October 27, 2019, Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader Raila Odinga will lead a campaign rally for Imran Okoth, the party's candidate in the November 7 Kibra by-election, at Laini Saba grounds from 2pm.
Mr. Odinga's rally is expected to draw a large crowd, including ODM MPs in Nairobi and other supporters.
ODM youth leader Benson Musungu, who was also eyeing the party's ticket but lost to Mr. Okoth, confirmed the rally on his Facebook page, saying, 'Tukutane Laini Saba on Sunday.'
The by-election is seen as a test for Deputy President William Ruto, who is supporting Jubilee candidate McDonald Mariga in a constituency considered an ODM stronghold.
The seat fell vacant after the death of Ken Okoth on July 26, 2019, following a long battle with cancer.
