Meanwhile, Msambweni residents have today taken to the polls to elect their new Member of Parliament in an election that has been termed as a battle between the pro-handshake team and the Hustlers movement.
Voters started queuing at polling stations as early as 6:30 am, indicating how eager they are to vote in their new leader.
Media reports indicate that voters washed their hands before accessing the polling station, and were also screened for temperature as directed by the Ministry of Health.
According to observers, the election process is fairing on well although there is very low turnout which is synonymous with by-elections.
In most polling stations, the exercise is largely peaceful with security officers ensuring that election rules are adhered to.
