NAIROBI, Kenya, Sept, 5, – Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya Alliance presidential candidate Raila Odinga is expected to reveal his next move after the Supreme Court of Kenya, unanimously upheld the victory of President-elect William Ruto in the August 8, 2022 elections.
Odinga in a statement said that he vehemently disagreed with the Apex court’s decision since his lawyers had presented what he described as irrefutable evidence.
“Our lawyers proffered irrefutable evidence and the facts were on our side. Unfortunately, the judges saw it otherwise. We find it incredible that the judges found against us on all nine grounds and occasions resulted to unduly exaggerated language to refute our claims,“ he said.
The verdict was issued by Chief Justice Martha Koome on behalf of the 7-Judge bench.
The former premier however said that the judgment was not an end to their movement (Azimio).
“In fact, it inspires us to redouble our efforts to transform this country into a prosperous democracy where each and every Kenyan can find their full belonging,”
He further proceeded to thank his supporters for their support saying that they will reveal future plans as the struggle for transparency, accountability, and democracy continues.
