Blow to ODM as court nullifies election of Magarini MP

Opposition leader Raila Odinga has suffered a blow after a high court on Friday nullified the election of Harrison Garama Kombe as Magarini MP.

The Malindi high court nullified his election following massive irregularities.

The court ruled that a by-election should be conducted following massive irregularities, voter stuffing, and reduction and interchanging of results in favour of the winner declared by IEBC.

A fresh mini-poll will be held.

UDA candidate Stanley Kenga had petitioned, challenging Garama's win.

Kombe won by a very small margin followed by Kenga.
