The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has cleared nine candidates to contest the Ol-Kalou parliamentary by-election set for July 16, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking after receiving their nomination certificates, the candidates promised to conduct peaceful campaigns as competition intensifies among major political parties, including DCP, UDA and Jubilee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DCP candidate Sammy Kamau Ngotho arrived at the IEBC offices in Ol-Kalou, Nyandarua County, with a convoy of supporters before successfully presenting his nomination papers. After his clearance, he promised reforms aimed at improving access to education support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou will no longer have to queue for bursary forms for your children. The money will be sent directly to schools,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UDA candidate Samuel Muchina Nyagah was also cleared to vie for the seat. Accompanied by senior party leaders, Nyagah pledged to deliver development and effective leadership to residents if elected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Jubilee Party is seeking to retain the seat previously held by former MP David Kiaraho, who won it during the 2022 General Election on a Jubilee ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People\u2019s Renaissance Movement candidate Timothy Kamau attracted attention after arriving at the IEBC offices riding a donkey. He used the occasion to campaign and position himself as a symbol of political change in the constituency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other candidates cleared by the IEBC are Edwin Muchiri (PNU), Stephen Wanyoike (NLP), Rachael Njoroge, Edward Mwaniki (Kenya Moja Movement) and Abdifatah Hussein (Federal Party of Kenya).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The clearance exercise officially marks the beginning of campaigns, with a tough contest expected between UDA and DCP as both parties seek to strengthen their influence in the Mt Kenya region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
