Roots party presidential candidate George Wajackoyah has threatened to boycott the presidential debate if he will not be paired with the two other top contenders.
Wajackoyah said despite availing himself for the debate at Catholic University of Eastern Africa.
“I am not going to debate unless we are four, that is what I have come to confirm, they never responded to my letter, if the media wants to corrupt the intelligence of this society, if the media wants to run corruption in this country, if the media itself can do what they have done, to hell with them,” he said as he arrived at the CUEA to seek audience with the Clifford Machoka led secretariat.
Earlier, Wajackoyah had announced he will not attend the presidential debate.
He said he will not be subjected to 'the joke of an already predetermined debate.
"We would like to state that our presidential candidate Prof Wajackoyah will not attend the presidential debate because we will not subject the incoming President to the joke of an already predetermined debate," reads the statement.

He said in protest to the presidential debate which has been divided into two tiers based on three recent poll results.
