On Wednesday, Keter got his nullified election win upheld by the Eldoret Court of Appeal. Babu Owino was among those who sent him congratulatory messages. More so, Mr Owino noted that Keter was being victimized over his political stand.

"Proud of the decision by Court of Appeal to reverse High Court's decision to nullify the election of Nandi Hills MP Alfred Keter. Like myself, comrade Keter had his victory unjustly nullified because of his firm stand against corruption and bad leadership in the nation," read Owino’s message on Twitter.

However, the message has been received with varied views from residents. Here are some of the reactions from residents on twitter:

mercy jane: “You can't use your powers to intimidate us. Well said Mheshimiwa.”

silas rotich: “What do you know about Nandi Hills politics? Mind your Embakasi.”

oloo otwane: “You will always rise whenever God is on your side. No weapon raised against you shall prosper. Ruto and your allies must remember this!!”

emily chep254: “You struggling for power yet you don’t help us even with your million promises. You politicians are so fake.”

esnus kirui: “Two sides fighting!!! We know who is who. Just because someone has taken his political stand doesn’t mean you have to victimize him.”

abiud koech: “Its high time Kenyan politicians realize that once an election is won, petition or no petition the winner will always be reinstated.”

mercy adhis: “Lawyer Otiende Amollo is a great man. We want such lawyers in Kenya.”

irene chepkemboi: “Keter was rightly elected. These people with their lame excuses want to disrupt our peace for nothing.”
