I have been following very closely.
Like Central, there is a problem in RV on whether to back independents or official candidates. Thus Ruto received an ultimatum: drop your support for independents or we free our supporters to vote for whoever (= NASA). It would look like he has struck a boardroom deal to cut off the independents. Unfortunately, that simply complicates matters.
In Central, Uhuru, who keeps saying NASA is about sharing jobs, has been promising losing candidates jobs left right and center! The latest to fall for the hollow lie is Kinuthia Mwangi - the murderous head of APs before he became governor.
NASA has made it clear: Parties support their official candidates. Wiper has equivocated because Kalonzo made a deal with Ngilu and then Musila decided to go independent. In Kisumu Ranguma has to fight from the trenches.
