A section of Mavoko constituency residents has asked Kibwezi MP Kalembe Ndile’s to accept and move on after he was floored during the just concluded general elections.
The residents argue that Kalembe’s decision go challenge the outcome of the elections in court will not pay. The Jubilee candidate had argued that the results of the polls do not reflect the reality on the ground.
The residents’ spokesperson Paul Mwendwa said that the lawmaker was floored fairly hence no need to waste time going to court in the name of seeking justice.
The residents spoke to the Star in Athi River town on Wednesday. “Ndile was defeated in August 8 elections fair and square. He has no reason to petition the results. He will still lose the case even if he proceeds,” Mwendwa said, as quoted by the local daily.
Ndile, Michael Mutuku (ODM) and Phylip Kilonzo (Wiper) had said that they will file a case contesting the results of the parliamentary seat citing election malpractices.
Mwenda said that Ndile did nothing for the residents yet he wants to be elected again into power. “Ndile did nothing to Mavoko residents when he was the director of Water Services Regulatory Board despite the water problems we undergo, he didn’t install even an inch of water pipe to the residents,” Mwendwa said.
