Bungoma Senator Moses Wetangula has enlisted the services of the Senior Counsel Ahmednasir Abdullahi to sue ODM for linking him to the issuance of tender to a greek firm.
The lawyer is said to have met officials of the greek firm during which he hammered out a deal with IEBC chair Wafula Chebukati to have the ballot paper tender issued to the Greek firm, Inform Lykos.
The allegations were raised by Azimio Coalition Secretary General Junet Mohamed.
The Senator, however, dismissed links with the firm saying he does not deal with ballot papers printing.

He accused the ODM of sensing defeat and even threatened to move to court over the matter.
It is for that reason that he has instructed lawyer Ahmednasir to take over the matter.
"I have instructed SC Ahmednasir aka “The Mullah” to take legal action against ODM desperadoes to stop their reckless inanity against Weta & KK. Watajua hawajui!!" Wetang'ula said.
The Suna East MP had alleged that Wetangula had invited officials of the firm to Kenya who disguised themselves as investors.
"When IEBC announced ballot papers tender you sent someone called Makokha Abdalla to Greece and you invited those guys from Greece to Kenya pretending to be people wanting to invest in Bungoma. They had come for a deal with you," he said.
But Junet has maintained that the senator was a key player in the deal and even dared him to go to court to challenge him.
He said the agreement sealed in the meeting involves the subtle addition of marked ballot papers through the Ugandan border to facilitate what he termed as "the Rigging plot".
