Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero has moved to allay fears of the credibility of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Party primaries set to begin this week.
Speaking on Saturday during a church service at Nairobi West Seventh Day Adventist Church, Kidero said the party would conduct free, fair and credible nominations, maintaining that the party had no preferred candidates ahead of the exercise.
"I want to reiterate what the party leader said that there are no special candidates or any preferred one. Every aspirant will be treated equally and let them not worry but instead engage the voters,” Kidero stated.
The party's primaries are set to begin on April 13.
He further noted that the Opposition alliance NASA had come up with an elaborate plan to ensure that the outfit wins more elective seats in Nairobi County.
"We are working together as members of Nasa in Nairobi County and we have set up a team that will see us deliver the majority of seats starting from the member of county assembly to the governor and the president,” he said.
