Anyang’ Nyong’o’s win in the gubernatorial race in the ODM Kisumu nominations has been nullified.
This is after the Political Parties Tribunal barred ODm from issuing a certificate to Mr. Nyong’o over irregularities in the nomination exercise.
Certifying as urgent an application by Mr Hezron J Opiyo, tribunal members Kyalo Mbobu, James Atemi and Hassan Abdi directed the applicant to serve the suit papers on the senator and ODM. It scheduled the hearing for Thursday.
The nomination in Kisumu had been riddled with confusion, with both Nyong’o and Ranguma declaring themselves as winners.
The subsequent declaration by ODM of a Nyong’o win was reported to have caused protests in Kisumu.
