Court to rule on Governor Nyongo election petition on Wednesday

The Kisumu High Court will on Wednesday (January 3) deliver its ruling on the petition challenging Kisumu Governor Peter Anyang’ Nyong’o’s August 8th election win.

In a judgement notice signed by the court’s Deputy Registrar Pauline Mbulikah, Justice David Majanja will be delivering his judgement on the petition filed by former Governor Jack Ranguma on the said date at 9 am.

After hearing final submissions from both parties last week, which included Governor Nyong’o and Mr. Ranguma taking to the witness stands, Justice Majanja had hinted that he shall deliver his ruling before 30th of January 2018.

In the petition, Ranguma argues that the governors election in Kisumu were marred by massive electoral malpractices and that the electoral commission did not conduct the process properly.
