Azimio Leader Raila Odinga on Sunday, March 12, alleged that Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) had four different servers head of August 2022, General Election.
Speaking at Mombasa during Coast Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) delegates meeting, Raila narrated how the servers were used to bungle elections.
He further revealed that two of the servers were located in Kenya while the other two were in foreign nations.
“We had four servers located in Holland, Venezuela, Anniversary Towers and Industrial Area,” he stated.
In what he termed as his stolen win, Raila revealed that no votes were stolen in voting and tallying centres.
“There was no vote-rigging in any polling station or constituency tallying centres.
“Even in places where we did not have agents, the elections were free and fair. The rigging took place mid-air through the servers,” he remarked.
Raila alleged that it was the Venezuela-located server that was used to manipulate results.
“Even here in Mombasa, Kenya Kwanza got less than 20 per cent and you will be able to see that once the servers are opened,” he told the delegates.
The ODM party leader reiterated his narrative that he won with 8.1 million votes while President William Ruto got 5.9 million votes.
While maintaining that he won, Raila faulted Kenyans who were asking Azimio to accept the Supreme Court ruling that upheld Ruto’s win.
“We cannot accept that because the Supreme Court was compromised and I will be revealing in future how that happened.
“Let us not be told to respect the Supreme Court decision and move on, the real power is with the people,” he vowed to carry on with mass action.
Raila revealed that the President erred in the IEBC selection panel of commissioners arguing the whole process was compromised.
“There will be no need to have elections in 2027 when the President wants to choose commissioners of his preference.
“It is like having in a football match the referee being chosen by one team,” he explained his reason for planning to boycott the 2027 general election.
While attending an Interdenominational Thanksgiving service at Kirubia Stadium, Chuka, Tharaka Nithi County, President William Ruto defended the process of picking members of the IEBC selection panel.
“IEBC selection panel was constituted according to the Constitution. Law Society of Kenya, Political Parties, Religious Groups and Public Service all forwarded names to be included in the selection panel.
“What I did was to Gazette the names that were brought to my desk as dictated by the law, I do not have any preferred candidates in the selection panel,” the President answered Raila Odinga.
