Caroli Omondi, a former chief of staff of NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga, wants his younger brother to dislodge the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) national chairman, John Mbadi, from the Suba South parliamentary seat.

Mr Omondi decided to back his brother, Peter Ocholla (Ford Kenya), after he (Omondi) was locked out of the contest by court battles resulting from the ODM nominations in April.

Omondi is now traversing Suba South constituency, campaiging for Mr Ocholla. Speaking while campaigning at Kisegi trading centre on Wednesday, Omondi said the ODM leadership disappointed him after it organised 'shambolic' nominations.
