Petition to Remove IEBC Officials from Office Filed at High Court after Nullification of President Uhuru's Victory

Hours after the Supreme Court nullified the re-election of President Uhuru, three voters have filed an urgent petition at the High Court, seeking to block the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) from conducting a repeat poll as currently constituted.

The voters, Brian Asin, Ben Wanasakaami, and Kevin Alwang’a filed the urgent petition urging the High Court to bar the IEBC officials from holding a fresh poll, having violated electoral laws in conducting August 8th elections as ruled by the Supreme Court.

The three argue that the integrity of the electoral commission officials to hold credible elections is in question and should therefore allow a new team to be appointed.

In the petition, they mention Chiloba (CEO), Wafula Chebukati (chairman), Ms Consolata Nkatha (vice chairman), and Commissioners Roselyn Akombe, Prof Abdi Guliye, Margaret Mwachanya, Paul Kurgat, and Boya Molu as poll agency's officials with questionable integrity.

The application will be heard next week.

The Supreme Court of Kenya led by Chief Justice David Maraga on Friday declared null and void the election of President Uhuru Kenyatta on grounds that the IEBC failed to conducted the election in accordance to the Constitution and the applicable principles.

This is just a desperate move that will fail.After all Dr. Roselyn Akombe is going back to UN if the info i have is correct. We need to replace her with a Wanjiku or a Njoroge that is missing on the list.

In addition to removing the crooked IEBC servants of the people, Uhuru and Ruto should be disbarred from running for any public elective office. Why? Both challenged the decision made by the Supreme Court of Kenya. They threatened to control it the same way that Kenyatta and Toroitich did to the judiciary if elected again! Both are cowards! How? during the struggle for the second liberation of Kenya, both supported dictator Toroitich as he (Toroitich) was busy torturing our heroes in Nyayo House and slaughtering them as if they were not human beings.

Uhuru and Ruto should step down for KIRAITU MURUNGI the new governor of Meru. Kiraitu and Raila both challenged the oppressive regime of Toroitich.

During the funeral of criminal Biwott, Uhuru said that he will protect his wealth! Does he (uhuru) know what Criminal Biwott did to the people of Kenya?

It is time for Uhuru and Ruto to go! They are not fit (as former cowards and sycophants ) to rule the nation of Kenya.

By the way, is Ruto the same man who sired a child out of wedlock with a minor and stole Muteshi's land? My dear people of Kenya, wake up. Kumekucha. Vote Raila(NASA)or Kiraitu (Jubilee) for our next president and send the supporters of dictator Toroitich back to where where (Toroitich) picked them after the wise people of Gatundu refused to vote for Uhuru.

NASA 21 STEPS TO INVALIDATE POLL AND ENTER FAKE CANAAN
EUREKA! WE FOUND IT. HERE IS WHAT NASA DID TO INVALIDATE ELECTIONS:
1. NASA knew they do not have votes to beat Jubilee but they have the mischief. They had no Tyranny of numbers but they could muster the tyranny of lies, mischief and propaganda. They wanted to get the ballot printing tender so they could get extra ballots and extra forms 34 A, B and C for false result claims in their strongholds
2. When they failed to get the tender, they went to court and insisted that the constituency should be the point of final results declaration. The judgement was thus granted
3. NASA knew they had no votes to beat Jubilee but they could spoil the polls
4. At the polling stations they could not bring fake forms because there was more scrutiny
5. So they printed fake forms 34Bs distributed to as many NASA-friendly Constituency returning officers in NASA STRONGHOLDS like Joho’s Mombasa county and Luoland. At the constituency level Jubilee agents in NASA strongholds were either absent, not keen to note fake Form 34 Bs being introduced or they were knowingly being NASA moles pretending to be Jubilee agents
6. The returning officers who were pro-NASA deliberately used the wrong forms 34B to collate the results from polling stations. They also deliberately entered as many errors as they could.
7. The voting was done okay in most polling stations and the results transmitted directly to the National Tallying Center and Constituency tallying centers.
8. IEBC had initially said they would not stream provisional results as per the court rulings. But under pressure and to avoid allegations of cooking results for being silent, they promised to show streaming results as updated every 3 hours.
9. That did not allow enough time for form 34Bs to come in so IEBC could scrutinize them and notice that in NASA strongholds, fake Forms 34Bs had been introduced.
10. In the meantime, NASA started or rather continued making noise about IEBC and how results were coming in when it was obvious that Jubilee was winning
11. NASA agents some of them overseas tried to hack into the IEBC servers. NASA also had moles within IEBC IT department where they deliberately interfered with the servers and data to create false evidence of results manipulation.
12. Observers and everybody noticed and agreed that things had gone well at polling stations. But at Constituency Tallying Centers there was less observers to note what in NASA strongholds was going on with form 34Bs. At Constituency and County level also, Jubilee candidates agents focused on MP, MCA, Senator and Governor results tallying and those were correct as announced.
13. The results continued coming to IEBC and IEBC was under pressure to finish up the collation of Forms 34 Bs to generate Forms 34 C. Remember as per Court orders IEBC Chebukati was denied power to change anything coming from Constituency Tallying Centers
14. IEBC and Chebukati did the right thing and correctly tallied the submitted results, then announced the winner legally and correctly.
15. NASA made noise as expected. Then pretended they would not go to court to fool Jubilee into relaxation while NASA agents and lawyers worked 24/7 to gather the many fake forms their agents (as Returning Officers) had knowing submitted to IEBC
16. NASA has over the years quietly taken over the judiciary using their friendly judges and many clerical moles. They also managed to push many of their sympathizer judges to enter the Supreme Court after three positions became vacant.
17. After results were announced and widely accepted NASA tried the violence card but it failed to catch on. The “peoples’ court” was touted but soon fizzled out.
18. They tried to use the foot soldiers (NGOS like Africog) to go to court but the move was thwarted.
19. Then in a last-minute surprise move NASA went to court filed the petition and piled external pressure on the judges to believe the fabricated allegations and false evidence and “this time around” redeem the supreme court image
20. Jubilee and IEBC lawyers did a gallant job as admitted by even Justice Ojwang. But lazy computer illiterate, false religious David Maraga along-side Kalonzo leaning Philomena Muilu, Wetangula and Mudavadi leaning Smokin Wanjala and one erratic self-impressing judge Leanola accepted the NASA lawyers’ propaganda and without an iota of evidence or sound legal reasoning and realistic and patriotic consideration of country THE INEPT JUDGES INVALIDATED THE OTHERWISE CREDIBLE ELECTIONS in a move that surprised millions and threw Kenya into turmoil.
21. Now NASA is working mischievously harder to create a constitutional crisis and force NUSU mkate fake Canaan. If Jubilee and IEBC and every Jubilee supporters doesn’t watch out and speak out, the repeat elections will be spoilt by NASA to create another claim of illegitimacy and throw the country into turmoil until mkate nusu comes through. IEBC please ensure no fake FORMs 34 Bs are submitted from NASA strongholds again!

"C" 54 years of arrogance and incompetence from our arrogant "wi mwega" and "chamugee" brothers and sisters is enough. Non-violent and peaceful change of leadership must take place now in Kenya! When, in the next 60 days.

Envoys have seen NASA mischief and said that they have confidence in IEBC. John Kerry and international observes have maintained that the election was not rigged! Where do these fanatics of NASA live? Uhuru and Ruto will win AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!Even the international community can see Maraga is working with Raila to give him presidency through the back door. It will not work!If push comes to shove Mau Mau infrastructure might be reactivated. Uhuru and Ruto won as witnessed by international community. Maraga uses missing rubber stamps and other flimsy excuses to nullify poll. His day of expiring away fast is fast approaching and there will be no nusu mkate for Raila and Nasa. Bottom line there will be no new IEBC and its 70% win for Uhuruto this time around!
