DCP Candidate Secures Decisive Victory in Ol Kalou By-Election - July 2026

The Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) candidate secured a decisive victory in Ol Kalou Constituency on July 16, 2026, defeating the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA). Despite allegations of attacks by armed men attempting voter disruption, the DCP managed to guard the vote and win. Nation Media Group journalists were attacked by hooded gunmen carrying assault rifles during the by-election, raising serious security concerns. Embu town came to a standstill as youths celebrated the DCP victory. Meanwhile, ODM dismissed the result, stating one by-election cannot predict the 2027 elections.
