The court, through a three-judge-bench has dismissed the petition seeking the removal of Isiolo Governor Abdi Guyo.
This was after a petition was filed in June 2023, seeking his removal as Governor for allegedly defecting from the Jubilee party to the United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
The petitioners had argued that Guyo and his deputy, John Lowasa’s alleged defection from UDA automatically meant they had lost their seats and thus the courts should bar them from running the county.
They had further sought that the court issue a conservatory order stopping the two leaders from running the county until the matter is heard and determined.
However, the court on Friday, December 5, dismissed the petition, claiming there was no evidence implicating Guyo and Lowasa.
