MUSIKARI KOMBO caught red handed BRIBING voters at Chogoyi School by IEBC -forced to ESCAPE to avoid being ARRESTED Wednesday December 11, 2013 - Amani Coalition candidate in the Bungoma Senatorial by-election, Musikari Kombo, was yesterday caught pants down engaging in an electoral malpractice that could see him disqualified from contesting. Kombo is said to have been caught red handed by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) officials bribing voters at Chogoyi Primary School in Bungoma during his campaigns contrary to the Elections Act. Kombo and his campaign team were forced to flee the scene very first leaving a car behind to avoid being arrested or victimized. Kombo flee towards the school gate which the locals closed to bar him from escaping but his goons broke the fence and sneaked him out. If the IEBC officials managed to get evidence including photos and video footage of Kombo dishing out money in the campaigns, then he will be disqualified from contesting the seat-the move would be Moses Wetangula’s greatest Kenya@50 gift
