ODM has withdrawn from Hell's Gate and London Ward by-elections in Nakuru County in favour of Jubilee party candidates.

The announcement has been made by ODM Nakuru county chairman Peter Ole Osono as they joined Jubilee campaigns in London ward.

Present in the meeting are MPs Samuel Arama (Nakuru Town West), David Gikaria (Nakuru Town East), Maina Kamanda (Nominated), Babu Owino (Embakasi East) and Kanini Kega (Kieni).

The exit of ODM from the contest now leaves the battle lines drawn between Jubilee and United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
