Raila Odinga has dismissed the consequences of Kenya’s official political race saying that the figures declared on Monday were “invalid and void”.

As indicated by the authority results, Mr Odinga barely lost to Deputy President William Ruto.

Mr Odinga blamed the head for the electing body of a “conspicuous negligence of the constitution”.

“We absolutely without reservation reject the official political race results,” he said.

Offering his comments before allies in the capital, Nairobi, he expressed that there was “neither a lawfully chosen champ nor a duly elected president”.

The 77-year-old long-term resistance pioneer was running for president for the fifth time. He has tested the outcomes in the past two races, incorporating effectively in 2017.

Mr Odinga blamed Mr Chebukati for “gross exemption” saying his group will seek after every single legitimate choice. He referred to his statement as “a significant mishap” to Kenya’s vote based system that could set off a political emergency.

He said that Mr Chebukati conflicted with the law by reporting the outcome without the sponsorship of his kindred magistrates. Yet, a partner of Mr Ruto, Musalia Mudavadi, told BBC Focus on Africa radio that chiefs are expected to gather the outcomes yet don’t decide the outcome.

This is a legitimate point that may in the end must be tried in court.

Minutes before Mr Odinga talked, four of seven discretionary magistrates who wouldn’t endorse Monday’s outcomes, held a public interview to give their reasons.

They blamed Mr Chebukati for side-covering them and of reporting results that were loaded with “mathematic silliness and made no sense”.

Juliana Cherera, the bad habit director of the commission, said that assuming you added the rates as declared by the executive of the commission the aggregate came to 100.01%.

In any case, the BBC’s Reality Check group says that this was down to an adjusting blunder and isn’t dubious.

Mr Odinga has anyway lauded the four magistrates for their “gallantry”.

“Most of (the constituent commission) – who confronted the harassing and unlawful lead of Mr Chebukati, we are pleased with them and ask them not to fear anything. Kenyans are with them,” he said.

On Monday, Mr Ruto portrayed the protests of the chiefs as a “side-show”, yet said he would regard a lawful cycle. He likewise called for solidarity, saying he needed to be a president for all, and for the country to zero in on what’s to come.

How Ruto challenged the chances
Last week’s political decision was to a great extent serene. The constituent commission was broadly lauded for leading a straightforward cycle by posting on its site results from more than 46,000 surveying stations and empowering anybody to direct their own count.

Be that as it may, fights broke out at the counting community on Monday after Mr Odinga’s allies blamed the appointive commission for messing with votes and endeavored to hinder Mr Chebukati from reporting the end-product. No less than three survey authorities were harmed in the skirmish.

Quiet has been reestablished in the country after a combination of festivities and fierce fights followed the authority statement of the official outcomes.

Great many allies, clad in yellow, Mr Ruto’s party tones, poured onto the roads of Eldoret in the Rift Valley. Conversely, in the western city of Kisumu, Mr Odinga’s allies impeded streets and lit huge fires. Comparable scenes worked out at a few towns and in the capital, Nairobi.

For the most part there is a liberating sensation that the counting system is over on the grounds that the political decision season frequently implies that life comes to a standstill.

Yet, individuals will be focusing on Mr Odinga’s arrangements to document a case at the Supreme Court.
