Kimaiyo noted that Jubilee Party already has a candidate, adding that he will announce his preferred party next month.

 “I am not in Jubilee because they already have a candidate and the party we will unveil will be the house that will take up the voices of reason who have no space elsewhere,” he told the Star on Friday last week.

Sources indicate that he could run on either Kanu or the Amani National Congress Party ticket. 

Kimaiyo seeks to unseat Senator Kipchumba Murkomen in the August 8 general election. 

Others interested in the seat are: Eldoret Water and Sanitation Company chair Cornelius Chepsoi, businessmen Bernard Boit and Joseph Kangogo.
