What are Ababu's aftermaths after quitting as ODM SG?

A questions that baffles many, Let me work out this hypothesis. Is he heading for the gubernatorial seat, the senate seat, or will he rather cool his heels for the next 5 years?
Well Busia is 628.7 sq m with an estimate population of 743,946. The same county has 251,305 registered voters as per IEBC analysis.
The Iteso as a community having 79,048 registered voters estimate.
Therefore it follows that the aba-marachi, ava-khayo, ava-samia and ava-nyala share the rest of 172,257.
 

Politics is a game of numbers and it does not need rocket science to tell us that Ababu needs this Iteso votes more than anything to license him a position at the county level.
 It is very possible that he may un-sit Ojamong but it will be a quagmire to do that and at the same time to split the Tesos’ interest in Eng. Vincent Sidai.
