Mr. Mureithi claimed that he is waiting to celebrate the court ruling on Friday, March 2nd. ​Mureithi, represented by lawyers Ham Lagat and Kiragu Kimani, had filed an application for scrutiny and recount of votes cast during the election, challenging the election victory of Owino. Mr. Owino celebrated the seen report with a post on his social media accounts, saying his petitioner had called to concede defeat. Francis Mureithi who petitioned my victory as the current Embakasi East MP at the high court has just called to concede defeat ahead of the court ruling scheduled for Friday this week. Mr. Mureithi’s post, however, countered the seen report, where he said the judgment on March 2 will be his reason to celebrate.
