Why Robert Alai is chest–thumping after Jubilee tribunal ruled in favor of Jaguar
Finally Charles Njagua Kanyi aka Jaguar is jubilee flag bearer for Starehe constituency in a race that now pits him against Steve Mbogo and Boniface Mwangi.
Jubilee Appeals Tribunal ruled on the disputed results of Starehe primaries on Tuesday May 2nd; incumbent MP Maina Kamanda had been declared winner with 10,374 votes, while jaguar garnered 8,391 votes.
Jaguar however disputed the results and held protests with his supporters at the Jubilee headquarters on Saturday. He demanded to be given the nomination certificate arguing that he floored Kamanda.
Jubilee tribunal yesterday May 2nd ruled in favor of Jaguar, he was declared Jubilee party winner in last week’s Starehe parliamentary nominations.
“Ahsante Starehe, I knew it won’t be an easy fight but together we did it#We won,” Jaguar wrote following the ruling by Jubilee tribunal.
Jaguar’s victory made Robert Alai gain a sense of self-assertion, he was certain Jubilee would give the ‘Kigeugeu’ singer Starehe nomination certificate even before the ruling was made.
“As I told you, Jaguar has finally been given the Starehe nomination certificate. Don’t listen to me at your own risk. #SiasaKenya” Robert Alai tweeted.
