Bahati politics<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/blockquote>\n

Kelvin Kioko finished a distant third in the hotly contested Mathare MP race that was won by incumbent Anthony Oluoch of ODM.<\/p>\n

Oluoch garnered 28,098 votes and was followed by UDA\u2019s Billian Ojiwa who got 16, 912. Bahati managed 8,166 votes on a Jubilee Party ticket.<\/p>\n

The singer was very optimistic when he started his political ambition. He once cried foul again citing he was being threatened to step down from the race. The singer is now yet to accept defeat.<\/p>\n
