• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: (i) The election was not conducted substantially in accordance with the Constitution or the Elections Act and the governing regulations. In particular, the IEBC failed to establish and maintain an accurate voter register that was publicly available, verifiable and credible as required by Articles 38(3), 81(d), 83(2), 86 and 88(4) of the Constitution and Sections 3,4,5,6,7 and 8 of the Elections Act 2011 and the Elections Registration of Voters Regulations 2012. We found that, as invited by the Petitioner to rely on the documents in support of this ground, had a similarity with his own grounds and the supporting facts. ... view
• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: mandatory legal requirements to electronically transmit elections results and this affected the validity of the presidential elections. Again, one of the reasons and facts that the Petitioner was relying on is that all the presidential results were not transmitted electronically as required and, therefore, the commissioners were incompetent.

There was no electronic transmission of results and party agents were ejected from the National Tallying Center. That is one of the grounds that the Petitioner sought ... view
• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Finally, on Petition No.4, the Petitioner said that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) violated the Constitution and the Public Procurement and Disposal Act, CAP412(c) of the laws of Kenya by awarding the tender to an unqualified bidder who then supplied devices that did not work properly or simply failed on election day.

• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: (2) The IEBC official tally of registered voters changed several times. This resulted in the final total number of registered voters differing materially from what was in the principal register. Again, that was a ground that the petitioner sought to rely on. That is a matter that was also canvassed at the Supreme Court. view
• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: (3) The IEBC failed to carry out transparent, verifiable, accurate and accountable elections as required by Articles 81, 83 and 88 of the Constitution. Again, you will notice that, that is what the Petitioner sought also to rely on. view
• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: (4) Several anomalies occurred in the process of manual tallying such as the votes cast in several polling stations exceeding the number of registered voters, differences between results posted and the results released by the IEBC, the use of unsigned Form 36 to declare the results and the electronic systems acquired and adopted by the IEBC to facilitate the general elections were poorly designed, implemented and destined to fail. Due to the failure of the system, the IEBC was unable to transmit the results of the elections in contravention of Regulation 82 of the Elections Act, 2012. Again, the petitioner ... view
