The 'most audacious attack' on Kenya's democratic institutions - BBC Africa
Raila Odinga has filed a petition to the Supreme Court of Kenya, contesting the presidential results announced by the electoral commission, IEBC last week.
The electoral commission said Mr Ruto won with 50.49 per cent of the votes cast against Mr Odinga's 48.85 per cent. Mr Odinga’s lead counsel, Paul Mwangi, says they are confident they have a solid case and can prove that there was election fraud.
He spoke to the BBC’s Mercy Juma that a series of malpractices 'hijacked' the communication of the vote results and denounced what he described as 'the most audacious attack' on Kenya's democratic institutions.
