Panyakoo was accompanied by DAP-K party leader Eugine Wamalwa.
The battle for Malava constituency has tightened into a fierce two-horse race, with the by-election emerging as a major test of the strength and unity of President William Ruto’s broad-based government.
The contest pits UDA candidate David Ndakwa, the immediate former minority leader in the Kakamega county assembly, against DAP-K aspirant Seth Panyako, a vocal government critic.
Both men embarked on intense grassroots campaigns across the constituency’s seven wards, each determined to claim the seat left vacant following the death of MP Malulu Injendi.
