Kwale governor-elect Fatuma Achani will be sworn in on Thursday at the newly constructed Kwale stadium in Matuga sub-county.
Achani will be the first female coastal and second Kwale governor.
She is taking over the mantle from the outgoing governor Salim Mvurya.
Both Achani and Mvurya served together for two consecutive terms.
They were first elected in 2013 on the ODM ticket and re-elected in 2017 on the Jubilee ticket.
During the August 9 general election, Achani vied through UDA with the support of Mvurya.
She bagged 59, 674 votes against her close competitor ODM's Hamadi Boga who got 53, 972.
She will be sworn alongside her Deputy Chirema Kombo, outgoing Samburu-Chengoni MCA.
The swearing-in ceremony will be graced by Lady Justice Olga Sewe and Magistrate Joe Mkutu.
Both national and county leaders are expected to attend the ceremony.
On Tuesday, Achani promised to bring massive development and run an open government once sworn in.
She urged opponents to join hands and help run a productive county government.
"The elections are now over, let's embrace peace and work together," she said.
However, three governor candidates led by Boga have vowed to go to court to challenge her win.
The three alleged the election was rigged and have no faith in the results.
