The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has officially gazetted the winners of the November 27, 2025, by-elections, paving the way for their swearing-in next week.
The results were published in a special issue of the Kenya Gazette dated December 1, 2025 and signed by IEBC Chairperson Erastus Ethekon.
According to the gazette notice, the Commission declared winners for one Senate seat, six National Assembly seats, and multiple County Assembly wards across the country after verifying that all elected leaders received the majority of valid votes and met constitutional and legal requirements.
In Baringo County, Kiprono Chemitei Cheburet of the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) was declared the new Senator after garnering 55,246 votes.
Six constituencies also elected new Members of Parliament. In Magarini, Harrison Garama Kombe of ODM won with 17,909 votes, while in Banissa, Ahmed Maalim Hassan of UDA secured the seat with 10,431 votes.
UDA’s Leo Wa Muthende Njeru was declared MP for Mbeere North with 15,802 votes, and David Athman Ndakwa clinched the Malava seat with 21,564 votes.
In Ugunja, Moses Okoth Omondi (ODM) was declared the winner with 9,447 votes, while ODM’s Boyd Were Ongondo took Kasipul with 16,819 votes.
At the county assemblies, UDA, ODM, DCP, Wiper, UPA, PDP, and an independent candidate shared victories across various wards.
UDA secured most of the seats, including Chewani Ward in Tana River, Fafi Ward in Garissa, Lake Zone and Nanaam wards in Turkana, Angata Nanyokie in Samburu North, Chemundu/Kapng’etuny in Chesumei, and Purko Ward in Kajiado Central.
Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) won Mumbuni North in Machakos, Narok Town in Narok North, and Kisa East in Khwisero. Independent candidate Eric Wekesa emerged victorious in Kabuchai/Chwele with 6,162 votes.
In Nyamira County, the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) secured the Nyamaiya and Ekerenyo wards, while the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) won Nyansiongo Ward.
In Nairobi’s Embakasi North Constituency, DCP’s David Wanyoike Warui was declared winner of the Kariobangi North Ward seat with 2,282 votes.
The gazettement now clears the way for the elected leaders to be sworn in on Tuesday, allowing them to formally assume office and begin representing their respective jurisdictions.
The by-elections followed vacancies triggered by a mix of resignations, deaths, and nullifications.
IEBC noted that all processes were conducted in accordance with the Constitution, the Elections Act, and the Elections (General) Regulations.
“The Commission declares that the persons listed were elected … having received the majority of votes cast and complied with the law,” the notice states.
