President William Ruto accused former President Uhuru Kenyatta of using the Siaya Governor to undermine government projects, while predicting a 2027 landslide victory for the Broad-Based Government. The political rivalry has intensified ahead of the 2027 General Election, with the Siaya gubernatorial race heating up as three prominent figures—Oduol, Ochieng, and Gumbo—have declared their intentions to run. Meanwhile, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) announced the resumption of voter registration in Ol-Kalou Constituency following an earlier suspension. Furthermore, the IEBC will conduct an Enhanced Continuous Voter Registration (ECVR) exercise in Ol-Kalou from September 21 to October 20, 2026. These voter registration activities and gubernatorial declarations illustrate the ongoing electoral preparations taking shape across constituencies ahead of the next election cycle.
