The United Alternative Government has declared that Thursday's Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election will be a litmus test for Kenya's electoral integrity ahead of the 2027 General Election. The coalition warned that the conduct of both the IEBC and security agencies will determine public confidence in next year's polls. The opposition outfit urged the electoral commission to enforce the law impartially and sanction anyone found violating electoral laws, including those accused of orchestrating violence.
