Ndile who contested for the Mavoko parliamentary seat on the Jubilee Party ticket said together with Michael Mutuku (ODM) and Phylip Kilonzo (Wiper), they will move to court to challenge the results.

They lost to Wiper's  MP Patrick Makau who got 49,728 votes. 

Ndile was second with 16,444 votes, Mutuku 9,460, Kilonzo 4,683, Wamae 1,251 and Mutindi 686 votes.

According to Makau, it is Ndile’s constitutional right to move to court.

He said the politician has a history of filing petitions in courts whenever he is defeated.

“Ndile went to court in 2007 after he lost in the Embakasi parliamentary by-elections after Mugabe Were’s death, he again filed a petition after losing the Kibwezi West MP seat in 2013. He can go ahead and file a petition in court against me after losing the 2017 Mavoko parliamentary seat if he so wishes,” Makau told the Star on the phone.
