Former Chief Justice David Maraga has termed Thursday's Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election a preview of the 2027 General Election, warning that conduct during the poll threatens Kenya's democracy.
In a statement on Friday, July 17, Maraga commended Ol Kalou residents for what he described as courage and resilience in the face of intimidation and alleged electoral manipulation.
"Their ordeal in the face of dictatorship has set the standard for popular resistance to electoral manipulation," he said.
