The money was meant to be given to Julius Mawathe who was contesting the seat on a Wiper ticket.

Kalonzo stated that he decided to keep the money since he could not locate Mawathe.

“In fact, I have just made a confession. On the voting day itself, someone brought Ksh 200,000 ahakikishe Mawathe anashinda (to ensure Mawathe won).
