County Senator Samuel Poghisio  urged the two presidential candidate’s Uhuru Kenyatta and Raila Odinga to  put their political differences aside and dialogue to end the political stalemate in the country.

“A country does not only need an election but also it needs peace and unity. Raila and President Uhuru have disagreed over certain issues and the only way to save Kenya is through dialogue since divisive politics is going to create a rift” he said.
