KOT troll losers who have turned ‘independent’
With the conclusion of the party primaries, a good number of aspirants, who lost, have opted to run as independent candidates.
Kenyans on Twitter using a trending hashtag #TheIndependents have mocked the nomination losers terming them as opportunists and politicians who cannot accept defeat.
Candidates, who from the word go, never sourced for parties have also lashed out at those resigning so as to take part in the August 8 General Elections.
Here are some of the reactions expressed by KOT.
Political aspirants who lost in the #PartyPrimaries should not vie as Independent Candidates. They wasted their chances #TheIndependents

#TheIndependents my take, will have a rough time convincing the Voters to ditch the Party’s allegiances and vote for them. A Very hard time!

What was the need of participating in the party primaries if these aspirants knew all along that they’d go independent?#TheIndependents
