By RICHARD MUNGUTIMore by this AuthorThe High Court has ordered Party of National Unity (PNU) to repeat its primaries to pick its Embu County candidates for August 8 elections. Justice Richard Mwongo said that the party should repeat the exercise as directed by the political parties’ disputes tribunal (PPDT) last Saturday. In his ruling, Justice Mwongo upheld the judgement of the PPDT that “no proper primaries for PNU Embu County were conducted.”He, therefore, directed that a repeat for the entire county for all candidates be conducted within 48 hours. And immediately after the ruling, PNU said it will contest the ruling at the Court of Appeal. But Mr Mwenda opposed saying: “There must be an end to litigation as there will be no PNU representatives in the August 8 polls.”
