LODWAR, KENYA: The case seeking nullification of the Turkana County gubernatorial elections began on Thursday in Lodwar High Court amid claims that the August 8 polls were not free, fair and transparent.

The case started with the presentations on the alleged bungled elections where Mr Munyes of the Jubilee Party argues that several ballot boxes stuffed with papers were found in some school and disposed in various parts of the country.
