Regarding the way forward after the election, the Nairobi Woman Rep noted that if the IEBC Chair Wafula Chebukati decided to call the election, there were a few cases at the Supreme Court that would be heard adding that what was important at the moment is to let students undertake their National exams.
She also hit out at Mr Chebukati for not being categorical with the numbers adding that a clear system should be put up to enhance credibility in terms of the exact number of people who voted and result transmission and verification.
Meanwhile, the Opposition is set to make a major announcement on Monday regarding the next move after boycotting the Thursday election.
Speaking from Kibera in Nairobi, the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) leader observed that the electorate of Kenya had heeded NASA's call to boycott the presidential election.
