Labour Party Leader Ababu Namwamba lost his Budalangi Parliamentary seat in the just concluded general elections to an ODM candidate.

Namwamba has announced supporting the re-election of President Uhuru Kenyatta and was among Jubilee point-men in Western Kenya.

This did not go so well with Namwamba especially after he defected from ODM where he was the party Secretary General.

ODM is said to be the most popular party in Busia County and his defection, going against the Party Leader Riala Odinga is to blame for his flop.

Nambwmba took it to social media sending President Uhuru Kenyatta a congratulatory message for what he describes as a resounding victory for Kenya.
