National Super Alliance (NASA) advocate Nelson Havi now says that Embakasi East lawmaker Babu Owino stands a huge chance of bouncing back after his August 8 election annulment.
High Court Judge Joseph Sergon on Friday threw out Owino's victory citing widespread errors and malpractices.
Owino's win was challenged by Francis Mureithi who emerged second, citing irregularities in the forms 35A and 35B used in determining the election's outcome.
According to Havi, the young leader stands a big chance of reclaiming the seat should he appeal the ruling.
The advocate alleged that the bench was partial in the case, urging the outspoken leader to re-approach it.
''For Babu Owino, my advice is that he should appeal to the Court of Appeal and get an impartial bench. The stakes are high,'' Havi tweeted after the judgement.
After the poll, Owino was declared the winner by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), garnering 46, 587 votes against Mureithi's 42, 253.
Owino now joins a group of 5 lawmakers who have had their voctories scrapped so far.
They are his Nandi Hills counterpart Alfred Keter, Kangogo Bowen (Marakwet East) Chris Karan of Ugenya, Wanjiku Kibe (Gatundu North) and Lamu West's Stanley Muthama.
