Kenya's opposition leader Raila Odinga files a formal challenge to presidential election results after narrowly losing the vote
The petition was filed online Monday morning with a physical copy expected to arrive at the court's registry in Nairobi before the 2p local time deadline. Odinga's Azimio La Umoja coalition claimed it had enough evidence in the petition to prove misconduct by the electoral commission after the August 9th presidential election that resulted in a narrow win for Deputy President William Ruto. The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission's results said Ruto, 55, won with 50.
This is Odinga's fifth time running and third time challenging his loss in presidential elections through the Supreme Court, having filed a case after the last two elections in 2013 and 2017. In 2017, the Supreme Court ordered a re-election to be held, which was boycotted by Odinga who again lost to incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta. "We have a strong petition and we're hopeful that it will go through," Maanzo told CNN on Monday.
