Wajir Governor Ahmed Abdullahi has pledged to work with all elected leaders in his county for the sake of development after winning an election petition in the High Court in Nairobi on Friday.

Abdullahi, who held a meeting with elected leaders from the region in a Nairobi Hotel, said that the affirmation of his win by the High Court has given him the impetus to work for the area residents to the best of his abilities for the next five years.
