Shinyalu MP Silverse Anami Lisamula (ODM) has been axed following the nullification of his election by the Court of Appeal sitting in Kisumu.
Three Appellate judges Onyango Otieno, Patrick Kiage and Agnes Murgor ruled that there was violence in Shinyalu on the eve of March 4 polls that affected the outcome of the election. The High Court in Kakamega had upheld Mr Lisamula’s election in October
The Appellate judges, in their ruling, faulted the High Court judge for dismissing an application by the petitioner, Justus Kizito , for scrutiny and recount of votes.
