Nyaribari Chache MP Richard Tong'i is likely to retain his seat in 2017 after locals of Amariba vowed to rally behind him for a second term.
Speaking at Amariba SDA church in Nyaribari Chache constituency, the locals said Tong'i has initiated projects which he should ensure he is re-elected to finish.
"Projects such as Ibeno MTC that was launched a few months ago should only be completed if Tong'i is re-elected since if a new MP will be elected in 2017 projects initiated by current him will be left pending," said Daniel Ongeri a resident.
Mary Ondoro stated that through Tong'i Nyaribari Chache now has good roads, improved health facilities, good schools among other development projects.
Tong'i who was present lauded the locals and promised to work extra hard to develop the constituency for their benefit.
