The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the election of Governor Mohamed Abdi of Wajir County, but is he safe in office? His opponent’s lawyers have vowed to remove him from office.
Lawyer Ahmednassir Abdullahi argues that Governor Abdi is in office illegally. Through his official twitter account, Ahmednassir vows to go back to Court with his team to remove the Governor from the office.
According to the Lawyer, the Supreme Court declared that his university degree “was a pre election dispute” and the High Court had no jurisdiction on that issue.
