Nyandarua Governor Francis Kimemia is allegedly ferrying youths to storm Jubilee headquarter demanding he is given the direct ticket.

He is facing off with well-established and worthy competitor Sicily Kariuki who was serving in Uhuru’s administration but later resigned.

According to a reliable source, Kimemia hasn’t been comfortable battling for nomination and thus he opted to use his networks and stop the exercise.

Today is the last day for the party to conduct a nomination and thereafter if anyone hasn’t joined any party will be forced to contest as an independent candidate.

“Francis Kimemia is allegedly ferrying youths to protest outside Jubilee office demanding that he be awarded another chance while those on the ground are supporting the nomination of Sicily Kariuki,” Source said.

UDA candidate is also supported by Chama Cha Kazi party leader Moses Kuria after speaker Ndegwa Wahome allegedly stepped down for him.
