A large number of Nairobians feel closer to Jubilee party than the National Super Alliance (NASA) party, a new poll has found.
According to the poll released on March 31 by TIFA, that 47 per cent of Nairobi residents are aligned to Jubilee while only 42 per cent are with NASA.
A paltry nine per cent feel closer to alternative parties away from the two while those undecided on parties stood at two per cent.
The poll identified that NASA strongholds in Nairobi are Kibra (72 per cent), Mathare (63 per cent), Embakassi Central (60 percent) and Dagoretti North (53 per cent).
However, Jubilee had a larger ground after winning Kamukunji (57 per cent), Westlands (51 per cent), Embakasi South (31 per cent), Starehe (59 per cent), Dagoretti South (62 per cent), Roysambu (64 per cent) and Kasarani (65 per cent).
There were found tight differences between the two parties in Makadara, Lang'ata, Ruaraka, as well as Embakasi East, West and North.
"The political classification has been done on the basis of the party support and strongholds consists of those with more than 50 per cent of supporters," said the poll.
