It is no longer secret that UDA gubernatorial candidate Jonathan Bii Chelilim alias Koti Moja is headed for a win.
Provisional results across all the constituencies that uasingishunews.co.ke has received indicate he won in all of them.
However, what might come as a surprise is the fact that Koti Moja garnered a majority of votes in Ainabkoi, the perceived Buzeki stronghold.
In results announced Thursday morning at the Ainabkoi Constituency tallying centre, the UDA candidate got 22,708 votes against Buzeki who had 20,455 votes.
The billionaire businessman has his rural home in Ainabkoi and voted at Arap Moi Primary schools.
For Buzeki to have any chance of edging out Koti Moja in the gubernatorial race, his first stop was to win his home constituency – but that never happened.
In Kesses Constituency, the independent candidate, making a second stab at the gubernatorial seat had 21,426 votes while Jonathan Bii garnered 21,426 votes.
Koti Moja was also ahead in his home constituency – Soy, where he garnered 49,809 votes compared to Buzeki’s 15,620.
