The ceremony will take place at the Mama Ngina Waterfront tomorrow, Thursday.

According to a source within the Wiper party, Musyoka is expected to land in Mombasa this evening.

"We will be heading to the airport shortly to receive our party leader Kalonzo Musyoka who is expected to land after 4 pm" said the source.
