Gor Mahia Elections: Sports Registrar now wants August 8 exercise nullified

The government through Sports registrar Rose Wasike has petitioned to have the recently held Gor Mahia elections nullified.

In court papers filed before the Sports Dispute Tribunal (SDT), Wasike wants the elections to be repeated after two months.

The papers seen by Goal cite the club’s Electoral Board for various malpractices during the exercise which saw Ambrose Rachier re-elected unopposed as chairman.

Among the illegalities cited by Wasike is a failure by Gor Mahia to use the Institute of Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) online voting system and failure to properly vet candidates who contested in the elections.
