Former Mombasa senator Omar Hassan has suffered yet another blow in his bid to oust Governor Ali Hassan Joho.The court hearing the case has ordered that he cannot rely on affidavits of witnesses to prove his case.The request made by Omar's lawyers was viciously opposed by Governor Joho's and IEBC's lawyers.They contended that the affidavits could not be relied upon and asked the court to order Omar's lawyer to restrict himself to evidence gathered during cross-examination.

Omar has contended in court and in the media that he was rigged out of winning by Joho. 

He accuses the governor of colluding with the IEBC.
