Instead, Osoro who is serving his first time, decided to mourn with various bereaved families in his backyard.

"I will not wast my substantive time listening to a case with no merit at all. I went to a school of law and graduated with Second Class Upper.

"Only that I missed just a point to get First Class. The case will be thrown out and that is a fact. I would rather mourn with my constituents that going to waste time in court," he wrote on Facebook.

And when delivering a judgment, Justice Hellen Omondi threw out the case, ordering the petitioner to pay the KNC legislator Sh2.5 million.

Although he was elected on a NASA leaning party, Osoro has on late vowed to work closely with the government of the day to spur growth in his backyard.
