Dick Mwangi Wathika is a former mayor of Nairobi. He was elected in July 2004, and was re-elected in 2006.
He vied successfully for the Makadara Constituency parliamentary seat in the 2007 Kenyan parliamentary elections on a Party of National Unity ticket.
Dick Wathika's elections as Nairobi's Makadara Constituency was annulled on 01/05/2010. The judgement was delivered by Lady Justice Kalpana Rawal said the electoral process was marred by irregularities. Lady Justice Rawal told a packed court that Mr Wathika was not validly elected, but said that she will issue a ruling in the afternoon on whether to stay the judgement before giving the parliamentary Speaker a certificate nullifying the MP's election [1][2]
The by-election was held on September 20, 2010. He failed to retain the seat as the poll was won by Gideon Mbuvi Kioko of NARC-Kenya followed by Reuben Ndolo of ODM while Wathika was left third [3]
