Others who endorsed the NASA candidate are Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Union (KMPDU) and the Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN).

Raila is facing a stiff competition from President Uhuru who is widely expected to retain his seat.

The union leaders said that it is the Jubilee government which has criminalised trade unions and acted deaf to the problems of workers in the country.
