The high court in Nakuru has struck out a petition challenging the election of Nakuru West MP Samuel Arama. The court ordered Ochoki to pay Sh2.5 million to Arama and a further Sh2.5 million to the IEBC. Throughout the court session, Ochoki sat next to his lawyers and did not address the media after the ruling. Arama was not present in court as he was said to be engaged in other matters in Nairobi. His supporters broke into song and dance after the ruling prompting police to chase them away from the court precincts.
