What you need to know:

  • UDA’s wave in the Rift Valley has sent all the rebels packing, with those who were thought to have put up a spirited fight being trounced following DP Ruto’s tour of the region.
  • The initial ratings forced DP Ruto to visit all the places individually to implore locals not to embarrass him.
  • A similar scenario played out in Nyanza where ODM has won most seats, despite independents giving Mr Odinga’s candidates a run for their money.
