Jubilee party offices in Kisumu were on Thursday destroyed by angry residents claiming the party officials were trying to rig the August poll.

The rioters broke windows and burnt the furniture to the ground. 12 IDs, four waiting cards and a passport were recovered.

The angry rioters also found a block book with peoples names and their corresponding national identity numbers.

The offices are said to belong to a Jubilee candidate contesting in the General elections.

On Thursday, angry ODM supporters from the same area were again on the streets protesting distribution of merchandise by Jubilee party officials. Among the merchandise were posters captioned ‘Raila Miaka Kumi.’

The posters were said to have been used to discredit the agreement between Raila and Kalonzo Musyoka. Raila supposedly signed an MOU with Wiper party leader agreeing to be a one term President.
