On the other hand, City lawyer Cliff Ombeta who was vying for the Bonchari constituency seat on the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party ticket has also conceded defeat.
“Bonchari had a different vision from mine. Grateful for the run and the experience. Perhaps next time we may have the same view.
"Bonchari Enyia has and always will be in my hart. Those who believed in me, we will keep it alive.

This will not be our end politically. Our vision was probably not the same with the ordinary Boncharian, therefore we must bring it back to them in a different dimension,” Ombeta said.
