The ODM official tried going after the thugs only for their partners to further attack him.

I tried to chase after them into some corridor and was attacked further by their team members. I am happy to be alive. God is Great

Philip was in Mathare where the party was holding its first rally after their big win in the Supreme Court.

Party Leader, Raila Odinga during the rally asked President Uhuru Kenyatta to desist from insulting the Chief Justice, David Maraga. He asked him to accept the ruling made on Friday and to ‘leave Kenyans alone.’

Also present was Kalonzo Musyoka who accused Jubilee of rigging the election.

”They stole our victory. Had it not for this theft, school going children would this term be benefiting from Free Primary Education,” Kalonzo said.

Moses Wetangula, Musalia Mudavadi and Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho were also in attendance.
