The Supreme Court has upheld Lamu Governor Fahim Yassin Twahib election. The court ruled on Wednesday that the court of appeal did not err in upholding his election. Former Governor Issah Timamy had challenged the court of appeal decision that upheld Twahib's election. The judges ruled that the Appeal Court did not go beyond its jurisdiction. The court ruled that Timamy was unable to prove any allegations of impartiality and thus his appeal was dismissed.
