“Let nobody cheat you that my votes will be stolen if I win. We have spoken to the IEBC returning officer who assured us of fairness in the election,” he added.
Kidero instead asked Homa Bay residents to turn out in their numbers and vote on August 9. He also condemned violence which occurred in Wagwe, North Karachuonyo ward a week ago saying campaigns should be conducted peacefully.
Accompanied by senator aspirant Kenneth Kambona and woman representative aspirant Elizabeth Ogweno both independent candidates, Kidero urged security officials to apprehend those who breach peace during campaigns.
He promised to solve perennial water shortage which has afflicted residents of Karachuonyo constituency for many years.
“I appreciate police for taking legal action against some perpetrators of political violence. We must avoid chaos because they create voter apathy,” Kidero said.
Kambona said he will focus on oversight role should he get elected as senator to ensure prudent utilisation of public funds.
He argued that Homa Bay has adequate resources which can help in the implementation of development projects should they be used well.
Kambona asked Homa Bay residents to make change in leadership come August 9. He said electing new leaders is the only solution for rescuing Homa Bay from its current problems.
The former IGAD advisor asked residents to reject Senator Moses Kajwang on grounds that he has failed in the oversight role. “There are no services in Homa Bay because of workers’ strike due to delay in salary payment. Let voters elect new leaders to rescue our county,” Kambona said.
