Moses Wetangula could be disqualified from by-election.

Fresh from losing the senate seat, Mr. Moses Wetangula could get another hurdle. He could be barred from contesting the senate seat. Mr Wetang’ula faces legal complications arising from Justice Francis Gikonyo’s findings that he had treated voters (offence of corruptly giving a voter or voters money or refreshments before or during an election in order to vote or refrain from voting for a particular candidate) and which
attracts a lengthy prison sentence or a hefty fine or both. 
But Law Society of Kenya chairman Eric Mutua said the allegations can only be proved in a criminal prosecution.
