KENYA- Nyanza Governors say -No elections in October our Counties'

- Kisumu, Siaya, Homa Bay and Migori Governors have declared no elections will be held in their counties on October 26. 
- The four, Anyang' Nyong'o (Kisumu), Okoth Obado (Migori), Cornel Rasanga (Siaya) and Cyprian Awiti (Homa Bay) told the electoral commission to stop wasting time training election officials to preside over the repeat presidential poll.
-On Wednesday, Prof Nyong'o joined in, saying no election material or person would be allowed into polling stations in the county's seven sub-counties.
"We cannot agree to take part in an exercise of futility being held without putting in place the actual electoral reforms that took us to court," he said.
- Nyong'o said his county had resolved to pull out of the poll until credible electoral reforms were in place.
