It was a huge boost for Kalonzo Musyoka and
Wiper party yesterday after their candidate for
the Machakos gubernatorial seat, Wavinya Ndeti,
was cleared to run.
The High Court overturned an earlier ruling by
the Independent Electoral and Boundaries
Commission (IEBC) Tribunal barring her from
running for the seat.
The IEBC’s disputes tribunal had ruled that
Wavinya committed an electoral offence by
being a member of two political parties, namely
Wiper and her own Chama Cha Uzalendo, and
therefore nullified her candidature.
But at the Kilimani Law Court yesterday, Justice
George Odunga, ruled that the IEBC Tribunal had
no powers to nullify the decision by the Political
Parties Disputes Tribunal that cleared Wavinya
to vie for the Machakos governor seat on a
Wiper Party ticket.
In his ruling, Justice Odunga further faulted the
IEBC for not investigating the coalition
agreement between the Chama Cha Uzalendo
and Wiper party.
After the ruling, an emotional Wavinya Ndeti was
spotted making the sign of the cross to thank
God.
Speaking to journalists, she said that IEBC could
have consulted with the relevant authorities to
save them this shame.
“IEBC need to be fair, if they could have
consulted the Registrar of Political Parties, we
could not have reached here. Today it has been
seen that Kenya is bigger than Chebukati. All
this is now the past I have forgiven IEBC, and I
urge them to conduct free and fair elections in
August. I want to thank people of Machakos for
standing strong with me,” said Wavinya.
#MachakosDecides . Above all I thank
Almighty God and people of Machakos for
their continued support. To IEBC; I
FORGIVE you.

Wavinya Ndeti’s woes prove incumbents
are still disproportionately advantaged at
polls relative to non-incumbents in
emerging democracies
