By SAM KIPLAGATMore by this AuthorThe long Wajir governor battle ended on Friday afternoon with the Supreme Court upholding the election of Mr Mohamed Abdi Mohamud. Mr Mohamud's fight began at the High Court and proceeded to the Court of Appeal, which upheld the lower court's nullification of his election. While detailing the judgment, Mr Maraga noted the appeal lacked merit and that he would have dismissed it but that the majority court held a different opinion. He said that in his view, the High Court was right in nullifying Mr Mohamud's election because he was not qualified and because of irregularities. The judges in the majority decision said a complaint was filed against the governor because he was not qualified.
