Wathika's 2007 election to Nairobi's Makadara Constituency was annulled on 30 April 2010. The judgment was delivered by Lady Justice Kalpana Rawal, who 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 would issue a ruling in the afternoon on whether to stay the judgment before giving the parliamentary Speaker a certificate nullifying the MP's election.

Dick Wathika contested unsuccessfully for the Mukurwe-ini Parliamentary Seat in the 2013 general elections. He died on 19 December 2015 for as of yet undetermined cause after having gone to the hospital.
