Standard Digital News - Kenya : ODM party elections called off after chaos erupt at Kasarani

By Standard digital reporter

Outgoing Secretary General Anyang' Nyong'o has called off indefinitely ODMparty elections that were underway following chaos that erupted at Kasarani Gymnasium.

Chaos rocked the gymnasium after a section of delegates led by nominated MP Isaac Mwaura stormed the venue claiming names of some candidates were omitted from the ballot papers.

Violent youth turned tables and destroyed ballot boxes and tore papers before armed police entered the venue to quel the chaos. Delagates are now leaving the stadium.

The party had earlier in the day passed resolution to create nine new positions in a move that upset part of the delegates.

Delegates from the Coast region walked out in protest as soon as the resolution was passed.
