The United Opposition camp, made up of Wiper, DAP-K, DCP, UPA and PDP, has secured several key victories in the just concluded mini polls across the country.

Based on the official results released by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), the coalition has performed strongly in both parliamentary and ward-level contests but lost some of the key races.

Below is a full list of the seats won by the United Opposition parties so far:

1. Nyasiongo Ward (Nyamira) -PDP’s Jackson Mogusu

2. Mumbuni North Ward (Machakos) -Wiper’s Antony Kisoi

3. Narok Town Ward (Narok) -DCP’s Douglas Twala

4. Kariobangi North Ward (Nairobi) -DCP’s Warui David

5. Kisa East Ward (Kakamega) -DCP’s Aduda Okwiri

6. Ekerenyo Ward (Nyamira) -UPA’s Jeremiah Ongaro

7. Nyamaiya Ward (Nyamira) -UPA’s Chris Osiemo

8. Chwele-Kabuchai Ward (Bungoma) - Independent Eric Wekesa (aligned to DAP-K)

So far, the United Opposition camp has won a total of 8 seats in the mini polls ; including the independent candidate aligned to DAP-K.

Though the united opposition camp performed impressively at the ward level elections, it lost significantly in the major key decisive races.

The camp narrowly lost the Malava and Mbeere North Parliamentary races. The faction was looking to win these two seats to prove their growing popularity.

However, the narrow losses is a clear indication of just how the two factions are running side by side.
