He noted that the winners now play a critical role in motivating communities to work together for the common good and in heavy lifting to accelerate their individual constituents’ development agendas.
“To those who did not win, you are still leaders in your own right, and your ideas and input are still required in shaping the future of our country,” Kindiki added.
Election officials reported that polling went on peacefully in most centres, with only minor delays in a few stations. Counting continued through the night before the IEBC confirmed the outcomes.
