The United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party has commenced its second grassroots election phase in all 40 wards within Homa Bay County.

This is after the grassroots election of party delegates from the polling station conducted in the region on 24th April 2024.

Today’s election is a significant step in the UDA party's democratic process, as it aims to select the party officials who will represent all 40 wards in the eight constituencies of Homa Bay County.

By yesterday, preparations had been completed for the second round of the ruling party elections, which kicked off at 6:30 a.m.

The 20 delegates from the polling centers totaling 17,500 delegates who were elected during the grassroots polls last month will participate in today’s polls and elect a total of 800 delegates from the wards

According to Nyanza Region coordinator Aggrey Otore, the polls will take place in particular centers in each of the 40 wards, and security arrangements have been adequately implemented to ensure the polls run smoothly.
