The Supreme Court of Kenya on Monday upheld the election of William Ruto as the president of Kenya.
Ruto, who is the current deputy president of Kenya won 50.5% of the total votes cast defeating the long opposition leader, Raila Odinga.
Delivering the judgement, the Chief justice of Kenya, Martha Koome, stated that the disagreement of the four Commissioners of Kenya Electoral Commission, Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, IEBC, with their Chairman over the result of the polls was not sufficient enough to nullify the election, as they had worked together with the Chairman until the very last minute of the elections.
