One man is nursing a gunshot wound after being shot during the Ford Kenya's National Delegates' Meeting that was being held at the Bomas of Kenya.

It is alleged that the man was shot by one of Moses Wetangula's bodyguards after he tried to disrupt the ongoing meeting.

The meeting was to name the party leader and Bungoma Senator Moses Wetangula as their presidential flag bearer.

This happened despite the court's order that stopped the party's two warring factions from holding delegates' meetings.

Other leaders who were expected to attend include Wetangula’s co-principals in the One Kenya Alliance (OKA) Musalia Mudavadi (ANC), Kalonzo Musyoka (Wiper party), Gideon Moi (KANU), and Cyrus Jirongo among others.

The splinter group is said to have been led by Wafula Wamunyinyi.

Wamunyinyi and the group had earlier issued a press conference saying the national delegates' meeting was illegal.

On Wednesday, the Political Parties Disputes Tribunal (PPDT) suspended a planned National Delegates Conference (NDC) pending the hearing and determination of a petition filed by Crispinus Barasa.
