During the campaign for the primary election, Ayume's supporters and the police clashed after the police attempted to stop Ayume's campaign rally in an enforcement of COVID-19 guidelines. His supporters accused the police of bias in favour of his opponent Anite who held campaign rally the previous day without disruption and went on to deface Anite's campaign posters. Ayume won the party's nomination with 8089 defeating Anite who polled 7321 to run in the general election. He won the general election and was sworn in on 17 May 2021, one month after the day his father, who had previously occupied the seat, died 17 years earlier on 17 April 2004. References
