Raila: IEBC System Hacked to Manipulate Results in Favor of Uhuru

National Super Alliance (Nasa) Presidential flag bearer Raila Odinga has alleged that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) system was hacked to manipulate election results.

The former Prime Minister said that he will not accept the outcome, claiming they are a sham.

Raila added that the provisional results being displayed on the Electoral Commission's (IEBC) website were a product of a hack on the system and are not supported by the by Form34A as required by law.

The Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader said a hacker accessed the IEBC system at 12:37pm on Tuesday, August 8th and began cooking results to favor President Uhuru Kenyatta.

“What the IEBC has posted is a complete fraud…to give Uhuru Kenyatta votes that were not cast…We have uncovered the fraud. Uhuru must go home and IEBC must be fully accountable,” Mr Odinga told a news conference at the Nasa campaign headquarters in Westlands.

“They gained full entry and created errors which allowed them to turn into a formula. Within 12 hours this attack on our democracy affected the election in all our counties,” Mr Odinga said.

“Uhuru had said he didn’t need votes to win…we don’t need him as our leader… I am saying this on behalf of those who participated in the election,” Mr Odinga said.

“We are basically telling our people not to accept these results. But stay calm.”

“We want our people to remain calm. It might come a time when we shall ask you to come out, but we must be strategic,” Mr Odinga’s running mate Kalonzo Musyoka said.
