Journalist Tony Gachoka on Tuesday told the court that he ought to have received an equal chance for nomination as a person with a disability but he was left out without any convincing explanation.

Mr Gachoka's lawyer Cecil Miller in his submissions argued that his client hoped that being a member of the National Rainbow Coalition (Narc), and under the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition as a person living with disability, his name ought to have been among those whom the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) listed for nomination.
