Ordinarily, Okiya Omtatah’s name is synonymous with public interest litigation. However, he has tossed his hat in the political ring and is vying for the Busia senator seat on a National Reconstruction Alliance (NRA) ticket.

Omtatah is up against Doris Wako (Labour Party of Kenya), Hillary Itela (ODM), Moses Amoo Oude (UDA), Wellington Emoru (independent), Braxwell Shiundu (Federal Party of Kenya), Kuchio Ongoma (DAP) and Isabella Masinde (Jubilee).
