Did the ODM transport the crowd for the Boyd event in Kasipul?
Kasipul’s small election is likely to be a fierce tournament between Boyd and former ODM Philip Aroko.
Aroko was also approved by the IEBC as an independent candidate after withdrawing ODM shortly before the vote, citing a dirty game in the process.
“I’m happy to announce that we have been officially removed under the Otete logo,” Arocho said, referring to the small wooden structure used in the cultivation of chicks against other animals. “It signifies my commitment to protect the people of Kasipul from the forces that threaten their well -being.”

On the way home, Arocho was welcomed by a large crowd of followers who appeared on the road to celebrate.
In what appeared to be a subtle shock in the ODM, he accused the party of transporting foreign foreigners to increase their support during the Boyd event.
“I was deeply touched by a show of love from our voters. These are our people, not outsiders. He said.
