President Uhuru Kenyatta has apologised for the chaos witnessed during Jubilee party primaries on Friday.
He said the party did not anticipate the large turnout of voters during the primaries which were cancelled following the confusion.
The nominations were marred by chaos, long delays, insufficient ballot papers, missing names and general confusion.
The President told journalists on Saturday that the party had estimated about 30% of turnout.
"Nobody expected the kind of turnout we saw yesterday and that is how the shortage came in."
"The party is still committed to free, fair and credible nominations. The new dates will be announced today," Uhuru said.
He said the process was cancelled across the country because the party wants the results to reflect the true will of the people.
Uhuru urged party members to stop pointing fingers at the officials over the mishaps that greeted the polls.
