Raila speaks out after Supreme Court ruling

Nasa leader Raila Odinga has spoken out on the Supreme Court ruling that upheld President Uhur Kenyatta’s victory.

Mr Odinga, in a statement issued through his adviser Salim Lone, said the Jubilee government was illegitimate.

“We in NASA had repeatedly declared before this Supreme Court ruling today that we consider this government to be illegitimate and do not recognize it.,” he said.

“This position has not been changed by the Court ruling, which did not come as a surprise. It was a decision taken under duress. We do not condemn the Court, we sympathize with it.”

Mr Lone promised to issue a more comprehensive statement later.

Mr Kenyatta’s victory in the October 26 election was upheld by unanimous ruling by six Supreme Court judges.
