IEBC has picked former Attorney-General Prof. Githu Muigai to lead its legal team in the presidential election petition to be filed by Azimio La Umoja-One Kenya coalition.
The Raila Odinga-led coalition is expected to file the petition at the Supreme Court by 2.00 pm on Monday challenging president-elect William Ruto’s victory in the August 9th presidential election.
Nation report that Muigai will head a team of more than 10 attorneys representing the election commission in the case including Kamau Karori, Abdikadir Mohamed, Eric Gumbo, Wambua Kilonzo, Peter Wanyama, George Murugu, Mahat Somane, Cyprian Wekesa and Edwin Mukele.
The team will be backed by over 10 other advocates in research and documentation.
Ruto was declared the winner of the August 9th presidential election after garnering 7,176,141, representing 50.49 percent of the total votes.
Odinga, who came in second with 6,942,930 votes (48.85 percent), has rejected Ruto’s victory, accusing IEBC Chairperson Wafula Chebukati of interfering with the results.
“At this time, nobody can say that we have a winner. I hear people say that we have a president-elect. If we haven’t heard the unanimous decision from all the 7 IEBC Commissioners, then this is shameful.”
“We have decided to go to the Supreme Court to table our evidence and show that it was not an election but a big joke,” Odinga said on Saturday.
Four of the seven IEBC commissioners—vice chairperson Juliana Cherera, Justus Nyang'aya, Irene Masit and Francis Wanderi—also rejected the results announced by Chebukati.

Another spectacle of useless journey to Canaan! More taxpayers money spent for what?
The peoples conman and his equally corrupt criminals must be ordered to pay back all costs associated with this frivolous charade!!!
Money attracts more money. Tax payers paying for nusu mkate Chief refusal heavily every five years.
Your stupidity glares everywhere with your very small mind.
SIKU ZA USONI: UCHAGUZI WA 2027
Ni muhimu kutazamia siku za usoni kwenye uchaguzi wa 2027. Kwa nini? Kama hujui tabia ya mtu vizuri unaweza kumpigia kura mtu asiyefaa. Kama watu wengi wasiofaa wakichaguliwa, nchi inaanza kudidimia na kutoweka polepole.
Ni mapenzi yangu kuona kila mgombea kiti amechunguzwa vizuri tabia zake za hapo awali kabla jina lake halijatolewa hadharani ili apigiwe kura.
Tabia za mtu si rahisi kuzibadilisha. Watu wengine wana kasoro kichwani mwao kutokana na maumbile yao. Ni lazima atakayekuwa mkurugenzi wa tume ya IEBC (SI NDUGU WAFULA CHEBUKATI) ajitahidi kuchuja (filter) wagombea kura wote kwa kutumia Haji na Kinoti kupeleleza tabia za wote wanaotazamia kupigiwa kura.
Hebu tuchunguze tabia za watu kwa jumla kutokana na wataalamu wa tabia za watu:
