This follows a successful petition by former powerful Internal Security Minister Julius Sunkuli during former President Daniel Moi's tenure.

Sunkuli had earlier argued that the election was marred by malpractices and ballot paper stuffing hence discrediting the poll as free and fair.

The former Minister claimed the Constituency returning officer, IEBC staff and the police joined forces to manipulate the results to the Jubilee MP's favour.
