Machakos Town MP Victor Munyaka has said his close ally, Governor Alfred Mutua might not retain his seat if the county goes back to the ballot.
Speaking to a local daily on Saturday, Munyaka said the governor has failed to deliver his pre-election promises which is likely to cost his seat.
He argued that it might be hard for the second term governor to convince the residents to re-elect him due to his poor performance in the last eight months he has been in office.
Munyaka said the electorates are waiting for the Supreme Court's ruling to determine the next governor.
“Machakos residents are waiting for the decision of the Supreme Court about Mutua’s appeal. I believe the governor has appealed against the ruling,” Munyaka said.
Mutua has since faulted the Court of Appeal for nullifying his August 8, 2017 election's victory.
He said the Judges misinterpreted the findings, adding that he won the seat in a free and fair manner.
Former Kathiani MP Wavinya Ndeti has asked Mutua to face him at the battleground rather than moving in corridors seeking justice.
“The ruling has been made, the judges have done their work, he should just swallow it the way I did. The truth has come out and I am putting my trust in God. God has worked through the courts to reveal and manifest himself,” Ndeti said.
