Former Nairobi Governor Evans Kidero has hired the services of Supreme Court Lawyer Juliana Soweto in his case challenging the declaration of Gladys Wanga as the winner of Homa Bay Gubernatorial elections on August 9.
Soweto became popular in his presentation at the Supreme Court of Kenya where she was acting on behalf of Azimio Presidential candidate Raila Odinga.

Kidero was seeking to succeed governor Cyprian Awiti in the August 9 polls as an independent candidate.
He seeking to overturn Wanga's win claiming that, among other reasons, that his clients were locked out of polling stations during which the results were interfered with.

“I have always been a peaceful person and that is the major reason I am here. To my people, keep calm because this issue will be sufficiently addressed.”
