The notice is also addressed to aspirants seeking the UDA party ticket for the Porro Ward Member of County Assembly seat ahead of the by-elections.
The UDA National Elections Board had declared David Kipsang Keter as the winner of the Emurua Dikirr party primaries after he bagged 13,759 votes.
Keter floored the late Johana Ng'enos assistant, Bernard Kipkoech Ng'eno, who garnered 13,394 votes in the close contest.
Kipkoech contested the results of the party primaries and alleged voter bribery, repeat voting and voting by proxies in some of the polling centres.
However, his allegations were disputed by UDA National Election Board Vice Chairperson Veronica Chebet, who stated that the process was transparent.
Keter will have a fourth stab at the Emurua Dikirr parliamentary seat. He had unsuccessfully run against the late Ng'eno three times.
Locals supporting Kipkoech advised him to consider running for the seat as an independent candidate.
