UDA National Treasurer Omingo Magara has announced his exit from the United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
While addressing the media, Magara attributed his move to a lack of transparency and democracy in the party.
“There are new developments that render my candidature on the party ticket impossible. I am going to talk and find new political suitors with who we share interests,” he said.
Magara had shown interest in the Kisii Governor seat on a UDA ticket.
