Security chiefs in Ol Kalou have declared the ongoing parliamentary by-election peaceful, dismissing claims of voter intimidation and significant security incidents.

• Central Regional Commissioner Joshua Nkanatha assured voters that adequate security measures are in place, with at least two police officers at every polling stream.
• Officials from the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) are overseeing the process, despite accusations of intimidation and misuse of security personnel by rival political camps, including UDA and DCP candidates.
• The election, seen as a significant electoral contest in the Mt. Kenya region, has experienced some delays due to issues with biometric voter verification.
