"I have been very fair to the party, they do wrong to me I kneel down and say It's ok Baba (Raila). I'm spending millions, I sold my house worth Sh25 million to prove that I want to be a woman rep of Migori county and I have proven," Fatuma said.
Fatuma was protesting at the ODM party tallying centre that was staged at Migori Teachers College.
She alleged that the party is favouring the nominated Member of Parliament Dennitah Ghati for the seat.
Fatuma claimed the alleged rigging aimed at getting tribal balance in Migori county in favour of the minority Kuria community.
"2017 I won they took my victory and gave it to current woman rep Pamela Odhiambo. Today I won by landslide."
She revealed that attempts to reach the ODM party officials for intervention over the rigging plot were futile as they could not help in stopping the exercise.
