Holding

The claim is dismissed with no order as to costs to facilitate party unity.

Facts

The complainant, Rael Bonareri Moraira, contested the Bogetenge Ward Member of County Assembly party primaries and was shortlisted for nomination to the County Assembly. Her name was missing from the final party list.

Issues

  1. Whether the gender top up list for nomination to the Kisii County Assembly violates the two-thirds gender rule.
  2. Whether the complainant's inclusion in the list is justified based on a special interest.

Reasoning

The gender top up list does not violate the two-thirds gender rule and contains the required number of nominees. The complainant did not provide a special interest that would justify her inclusion in the list.

Outcome
