Wavinya Ndeti disqualified from Machakos governor race
The Wiper Democratic Movement of Kenya has suffered a major blow after the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Disputes Resolution Tribunal disqualified its Machakos gubernatorial candidate, Ms Wavinya Ndeti.
The IEBC Tribunal, led by commission chairman Wafula Chebukati, locked Ms Ndeti out of the race for being a member of two political parties at the same time.
The tribunal allowed the complaint that was filed by voter Kyalo Peter Kyuli, who is also a Member of the Machakos County Assembly, seeking the nullification of Ms Ndeti’s nomination as well as revocation of the certificate awarded to her by Wiper.
