Nairobi — The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) Electoral Board says they are all ready for the county elections this Saturday in 44 polling stations countrywide.

The board chair Hesbon Owilla said 100 electoral officials have been trained as returning and presiding officers whereas all materials have been dispatched to every polling station.

"We have dispatched elections materials to the Counties and after the training of elections officers on Monday, we are good to go. Nairobi East has the highest number of delegates (167) while Kirinyaga (7) and Makueni (7) have the least number of delegates," Owilla said.

The chair further revealed they have dealt with all complaints comprehensively albeit they will engage (virtually) all candidates on Thursday afternoon.

Meanwhile, the board appeared before the Departmental Committee on Sports and Culture on Tuesday to brief them on the preparations for the polls, which commenced a little over a month ago.
