Good morning,
It is on a Thursday and the presidential petition presented to the Supreme Court by Raila Odinga’s team is set to be heard.
But even before the hearing begins, Raila Odinga has continued firing salvos at the IEBC boss Wafula Chebukati. In his latest demands, Raila has demanded that Chebukati should stand aside and allow his deputy Juliana Cherera an opportunity to conduct the Kakamega and Mombasa mini polls.
Speaking in Mombasa on Wednesday while campaigning for Azimio candidate Abdulswamad Nassir, Raila said Chebukati should disqualify himself from the polls over integrity issues.
He accused the IEBC Chairperson of standing by injustices committed in the 2022 presidential elections.
Raila said Chebukati is now a suspect by virtue of the petitions filed in court to challenge the outcome of the August 9 general election.
Do you think Raila is justified and should Chebukati steps aside from managing all upcoming polls.
