Petitioners challenging the victory of Kisii senator Sam Ongeri will get the court verdict on February 5, after concluding their final submissions said Justice Winfridah Okwany.

Ongeri's August 8 victory was challenged by a voter Charles Orito, who claims the election was not conducted according to the law.

Lawyer Charles Rigoro for the commission and Namulunga, dismissed the petitioner’s claims, saying only one register was used in the election.

Representing Ongeri, Okong’o Omogeni said the petitioner’s evidence lacks merit.
