Opposition party ODM has disowned Edick Anyanga as the party’s nominee for the Nyatike parliamentary seat.

Mr Anyanga was on Friday cleared by IEBC to vie for the seat on ODM ticket.

On Monday, the High Court ruled that Mr Anyanga won in the ODM party primaries. ODM has already challenged the ruling in the Court of Appeal.

According to the party, the person who has the original nomination certificate is Tom Odege and not Mr Anyanga as ruled by the court

“A fraudster and imposter is likely to be cleared to contest on the applicant’s ticket using a forged certificate of nomination and this court ought to stop this pending hearing of the appeal as sought,” read part of the appeal lodged in the Court of Appeal on Friday.
