The National Supper Alliance (Nasa) has developed a campaign and votes protection strategy ahead of the presidential poll scheduled for next month.
Officially titled ‘Linda Kura Operation’, the strategy will be headed by governors, in coordination with a secretariat that will have its presence on the polling station level.
Kisumu Governor Anyang’ Nyong’o on Friday said the plan will ensure Nasa’s flagbearer Raila Odinga gets maximum votes in the October 17 election.
“We have resolved to push for a 100 percent voter turnout in the coming election to enable our leader Raila Odinga win the presidential seat,” Prof Nyong’o said during a planning meeting with the county’s campaign team.
