Suba South MP aspirant Caroli Omondi has asked ODM to nullify the primaries in which his rival and incumbent MP John Mbadi was declared the winner.

Caroli's failure to be declared winner saw his supporters stage demonstrations at the Magunga trading centre on Friday.

He said he had formally disputed the results at the party's tribunal and was hoping to get justice.

“I have petitioned the party’s tribunal to consider evaluating results of three polling stations that had abnormalities,” he said.

The former Raila Odinga aide said there were anomalies at Got Oloo, Miria and Mikuyu polling centres.

He disputed results which indicated Mbadi won by garnering 12,365 votes against his 11,597.

“The party NEB can either repeat nominations in the three areas or nullify them and announce me as the winner,” Caroli said.

However, Mbadi refuted the claims and said he won fairly.

“I urge my brother Caroli to accept the results. It is not fair for him to dispute results of a contest in which he has lost,” Mbadi said.
