Jubilee Nakuru Senator aspirant Susan Kihika was dealt a blow after her nomination was nullified on Monday. The tribunal chaired by Kyalo Mbobu said Kihika is ineligible for the August 8 poll as she is still in office as the Speaker of Nakuru County Assembly. The argument is that the Jubilee Party violated the law by presenting her name yet she had not resigned as required by law. The petition against Kihika was filed by Margaret Wanjiru Kiiru who is vying for the seat as an independent candidate. Read: More women to run for election in Nakuru on August 8
