Kenya’s Presidential candidates after the second and final debate.
Kenya’s presidential candidates have faced off for a second and final debate ahead of elections on March 4. The debate focused mainly on education and health care and the individual candidates integrity.
The candidates also confronted issues like the the high cost of living, the minimum wage and the growing gap between the rich and poor.
The debate, at times quite heated when the candidates traded barbs regaring corruption, it seemed like each and every one of them had something to answer for, something in their past.
There are eight presidential candidates vying for Kenya’s presidency, however, the two front runners Raila Odinga and Uhuru Kenyatta are tied in a statistical dead heat, according to recent polls.
Uhuru Kenyatta, is also the son of Kenya’s first president Jomo Kenyatta.
