Supreme Court to deliver presidential petition ruling at 11am

The Supreme Court will deliver judgment on the presidential election petition filed by Nasa leader Raila Odinga at 11am Friday, the Judiciary has said.

The Judiciary on Friday confirmed that Registrar Esther Nyaiyaki has notified parties that the court would sit at 11am and that they should be seated in court by then.

The court’s seven judges are set to decide whether to uphold or nullify President Uhuru Kenyatta’s win as declared by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).

The IEBC declared President Kenyatta the winner after garnering 54 per cent of the votes cast on August 8.

But if the judges find that there were massive irregularities in the poll, they will annul the win and send back voters to the ballot in 60 days.
