Reactions after Homa Bay Governor Cyprian Awiti loses his seat are the best you'll see all day

Homa Bay Governor Cyprian Awiti has lost his seat after the high court nullified his August 8, 2017, win. The petition was filed by Former Kasipul MP Oyugi Magwanga challenging his win.

The Homa Bay Election Court had ordered the scrutiny and recount of votes in 400 polling centers across the county in December 2017.

In the petition, Magwanga has sued The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), Homa Bay County Returning Officer Michael Kosgei, Homa Bay Governor Cyprian Awiti and his Deputy Hamilton Orata.

Cyprian Awiti should be replaced by Eric Omondi “Ballers” #Oneside— wangari Gaitho (@wangari_gaitho) February 20, 2018

High court nullifies Cyprian Awiti's win! While at it, let's not forget that IEBC lied to the people of Homabay, Kisumu, Siaya and Migori that their repeat election would be held at a later date!

High Court nullifying Governor Cyprian Awiti is politically strategised to destabilise NASA's objectives but Awiti does not need to even campaign vigorously, will clinch the seat "VERY EARLY in the morning," Kenyan proverb ????????????— DAN SUDI (@Dan_Sudi) February 20, 2018

Good that the HIGH COURT has quashed the victory of Homa Bay Governor Cyprian Awiti; where does this leave the IEBC officials who were in charge?

Cyprian Awiti was handpicked by Raila Odinga and people rejected him in the ballot and he rigged his way through. Justice served.— Oluoch Fredrick. (@oluoch_fredrick) February 20, 2018
