Azimio candidate for the just concluded

presidential election Raila Amollo

Odinga has convinced the Supreme Court

to scrutinize the votes and declare him

the winner.

Odinga who is the petitioner challenging

the win of UDA candidate and also

President elect William Ruto has cited

this inline with section 80 of the

election amendment act.

As IEBC brought 45 ballot boxes from 15

polling stations as requested by the

first petitioner at Supreme Court.

Raila through his lawyer Julie soweto

while submitting claimed that Raila

votes we’re reduced and added to William

Ruto.

Odinga said this through one of his

lawyers Julie Soweto at the Milimani

court when the hearing of his case began

on Tuesday,August 31.

Odinga claims that the forms were all

signed by the agents and returning

officers but the figures in the forms

were tampered with .

The Petitioner gave an example of

Chepalungu constituency, where he had

41 votes and Ruto had 109 votes but

in form 34A showed Ruto had over 200

votes while Odinga remained with one

vote .

“Raila votes were being reduced then

added to William Ruto votes before being

uploaded in the public portal,”said

Soweto.

Soweto added that 25 polling stations in

Baringo were also tampered with.

She continued to say that the votes

stolen from Odinga and added to Ruto in

Baringo county was over 4000.

The shocking revelation was submitted by

Odinga’s team of lawyers where the

court gave the petitioner three hours

of submission.
