The 2027 Kimilili parliamentary contest is beginning to take shape with Patrick Wandili, a former county chief officer emerging as a top contender after being endorsed by area MP Didmus Barasa who said he has what it takes to succeed him and steer the constituency forward in terms of development.
On Monday, Barasa revealed that he prefers Wandili to take over after him as the lawmaker sets his eyes on the Bungoma County governorship in the 2027 General Elections.
Barasa unveiled Wandili during a meeting at his Nasianda village home, where the former chief officer officially joined the ruling UDA party.
