NATIONAL SUPER ALLIANCE Chairman, Article 86 of The

NATIONAL SUPER ALLIANCE 10th August 2017 Mr. Wafula Chebukati Chairperson IEBC National Tallying Center Bomas of Kenya Nairobi Chairman, RE: PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION RESULT Article 86 of the Constitution requires as follows “At every election, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission shall ensure that— (a) whatever voting method is used, the system is simple, accurate, verifiable, secure, accountable and transparent; (b) the votes cast are counted, tabulated and the results announced promptly by the presiding officer at each polling station; (c) the results from the polling stations are openly and accurately collated and promptly announced by the returning officer; and (d) appropriate structures and mechanisms to eliminate electoral malpractice are put in place, including the safekeeping of election materials.” We have information of the actual presidential election results contained in the IEBC database. NATIONAL SUPER ALLIANCE The data, which confirm the authentic and legitimate result of the presidential election, shows that the two leading candidates obtained the following votes: • Raila Amolo Odinga 8,041726 votes • Uhuru Kenyatta 7,755,428 Votes Screenshots of the results as displayed on your website and monitors at Bomas show the following results: • Uhuru Kenyatta 8,056,885 • Raila Amolo Odinga 6,659,493 Evidently, the accurate and lawful results in the presidential election is the transmission received from the polling stations and contained in the IEBC servers. We have annexed the following: • The actual and complete data contained in IEBC servers (dbo.PRESIDENTIAL_REAL_TIME); and • The screenshots obtained from the IEBC website. We therefore demand as follows: 1. That you stop forthwith the display of unverified and unauthenticated results. 2. That you allow political parties to download all the Forms 34A and Forms 34B to enable them to verify them expeditiously. It is practically impossible for political parties to verify all the 41,000 documents with only two terminals that the IEBC is providing. 3. That Rt. Hon. Raila Amolo Odinga and Hon. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka be declared as the President and the Deputy President of the Republic of Kenya. Sincerely, NATIONAL SUPER ALLIANCE Hon. Musalia Mudavadi Chief Agent, NASA Coalition Sen. James Orengo Alternate Chief Agent, NASA Coalition .

Kenya 2017: the Interim Elections? Justin Willis - Durham University Nic Cheeseman - University of Birmingham Gabrielle Lynch - University of Warwick
NOTE ACTUALITE 2 KENYA 2017: THE INTERIM ELECTIONS? Justin Willis - Durham University Nic Cheeseman - University of Birmingham Gabrielle Lynch - University of Warwick Juillet 2017 L’Observatoire de l’Afrique de l’Est (2017-2010) est un programme de recherche coordonné par le Centre d’Etude et de Documentation Econo- mique, Juridique et Sociale de Khartoum (MAEDI-CNRS USR 3123) et le Centre de Recherches Internationales de Sciences Po Paris. Il se situe dans la continuité de l’Observatoire de la Corne de l’Afrique qu’il remplace et dont il élargit le champ d’étude. L’Observatoire de l’Afrique de l’Est a vocation à réaliser et à diffuser largement des Notes d’analyse relatives aux questions politiques et sécuritaires contemporaines dans la région en leur offrant d’une part une perspective historique et d’autre part des fon- dements empiriques parfois négligées ou souvent difficilement accessibles. L’Observatoire est soutenu par la Direction Générale des Relations Inter- nationales et de la Stratégie (ministère des Armées français). Néanmoins, les propos énoncés dans les études et Observatoires commandés et pilo- tés par la DGRIS ne sauraient engager sa responsabilité, pas plus qu’ils ne reflètent une prise de position officielle du ministère de la Défense. Il s’appuie par ailleurs sur un large réseau de partenaires : l’Institut fran- çais des relations internationales, le CFEE d’Addis-Abeba, l’IFRA Nai- robi, le CSBA, LAM-Sciences Po Bordeaux, et le CEDEJ du Caire. Les notes de l’Observatoire de l’Afrique de l’Est sont disponibles en ligne sur le site de Sciences Po Paris.

The Secret Double-Dealing in Kenyatta 'Crimes Against Humanity' Case - Page 1 | Medi… Page 1 of 3
The secret double-dealing in Kenyatta 'crimes against humanity' case - Page 1 | Medi… Page 1 of 3 INTERNATIONAL INVESTIGATION The secret double-dealing in Kenyatta 'crimes against humanity' case OCTOBER 6, 2017 | BY STÉPHANIE MAUPAS In 2010, the International Criminal Court began proceedings against six Kenyan officials, including the country’s current president, Uhuru Kenyatta, of crimes against humanity over their responsibility in the deaths of more than 1,100 people, the displacement of an estimated 350,000 others, and rapes and persecutions which followed contested presidential election results in late 2007. But, as revealed by confidential documents obtained by Mediapart and analysed together with its media partners in the European Investigative Collaborations consortium, the ICC cases fell apart due in large part to the weakness of the investigation led by chief prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo who, after bringing charges against Kenyatta, subsequently campaigned behind the scenes for the Kenyan leader to escape prosecution. Stéphanie Maupas reports. enyans are due to return to the polls on October 26th in a re-run of presidential elections held on August 8th, K after Kenya’s supreme court in September annulled sitting president Uhuru Kenyatta’s victory over longstanding rival Raila Odinga, which it ruled was invalidated by “illegalities and irregularities”. The opposition National Super Alliance movement is demanding an overhaul of the east African country’s electoral commission, and rolling demonstrations in the capital Nairobi (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-10- 05/kenya-to-tighten-security-for-opposition-protests-on-friday) in support of the call have been marred by clashes with police.

From the outset, it is important to clarify that this commentary does not purport to review the decisions of the 2013 and 2017 presidential election petitions.1 It only seeks to review and critique one salient aspect that emerges from the Supreme Court of Kenya’s approach in the treatment of rejected votes in those presidential election disputes.

National Super Alliance Coalition Statement on Withdrawal of the Candidature of Rt.Hon
NATIONAL SUPER ALLIANCE COALITION STATEMENT ON WITHDRAWAL OF THE CANDIDATURE OF RT.HON. RAILA ODINGA AND H.E STEPHEN KALONZO MUSYOKA IN THE Page 1 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION SCHEDULED FOR 26TH OCTOBER, 2017. 1. On August 8 Kenyans voted in the 6th election since the return to multiparty Page 2 politics in 1992—the political reform we call the Second Liberation. As is customary voting went smoothly. But when it came to tallying and transmission of results, everything that could go wrong did go wrong. It became the first presidential election in Africa to be Page 3 annulled by the Court, and only the fourth in the world. 2. In the aftermath, the annulment has plunged the country into uncharted waters. That was to be expected. What we would not have expected is that the Page 4 country’s leadership would be divided by a fundamental tenet of democracy, namely free and fair elections. 3. We at NASA have insisted that the fresh election ordered be held to the standard ordered by the Supreme Court, Page 5 that is, in strict conformity with the Constitution and written law. We have provided a checklist of what we deem to be the “irreducible minimum” changes required to ensure compliance. Page 6 4. The validity of the checklist of the requirements for free and fair elections proposed by NASA has not been disputed by anyone, not by the IEBC, not by Jubilee or other actors and observers. The EU Observer Mission recommendations Page 7 are in conformity with our ‘irreducible minimum.” 5. Instead, the case for proceeding with the fresh election on 26 October without these changes is being made on the grounds of time constraints.

Statement EU EOM Kenya 2017
European Union Election Observation Mission Republic of Kenya General elections 2017 Statement EU EOM Kenya 2017 18 RECOMMENDATIONS - PROGRESS UPDATE Nairobi, 16 October 2017 On 14 September the EU Election Observation Mission (EOM) published an Interim Statement with findings since the 8 August elections and 18 recommendations for the re-run of the presidential election.1 These 18 recommendations are all consistent with the 20 September detailed judgement of the Supreme Court, which affirmed the need for the results process to meet the constitutional requirement of being “simple, accurate, verifiable, secure, accountable and transparent.”2 The EU EOM 18 recommendations are not an exhaustive list of possible improvements, but key practical points offered for consideration by national stakeholders, including the election administration, political leaders, media and other actors. The EU EOM has undertaken a review of progress on its 18 recommendations, to identify measures taken to date and remaining shortcomings. This will be subject to further review through the electoral process, particularly during polling and the results process. The EU EOM has observed the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) undertaking positive measures at this stage in regards to nearly all of the nine recommendations that relate to the election administration. If implemented as planned, these provide a foundation for an improved technical process, with stronger transparency and integrity measures. Plans for much stronger coverage by the media of tabulation in tallying centres should enable the public to see the results tabulation process and totals. The EU EOM will continue observing actual implementation of the measures put in place to assess their effectiveness.

Kenya General Elections, 8 August 2017
ELECTION OBSERVATION DELEGATION TO THE GENERAL ELECTIONS IN KENYA (6-10 August 2017) Report by David McALLISTER, Chair of the Delegation Annexes: A List of participants B Declaration of Mr David McAllister, Chair of the EP Delegation 1 INTRODUCTION On 15 June 2017, Parliament’s Conference of Presidents authorised the sending of a delegation to observe the General elections in Kenya, scheduled for 8 August 2017. The EP Delegation was made up of seven members led by Mr David McAllister (Germany, EPP). The other members were Mr Joachim Zeller (Germany, EPP), Ms Željana Zovko (Croatia, EPP), Ms Julie Ward (UK, S&D), Ms Tanja Fajon (Slovenia, S&D), Mr Bernd Lucke (Germany, ECR), and Ms Marie-Christine Vergiat (France, GUE). The European Parliament delegation conducted its activities in Kenya from 6 to 10 August 2017. In line with common practice it was associated with the EU Election Observation Mission (EOM) which was present in Kenya from mid June 2017 and was led by MEP Marietje Schaake (The Netherlands, ALDE)1. The EOM - which comprised some 130 observers (including long- term and short term observers, the EP delegation, as well as diplomats from EU Member States resident in Kenya, plus Canada, Norway and Switzerland) over the Election Day period - was observing in approximately 240 of Kenya’s 290 constituencies. Other international observer missions present in Kenya during the election period included the African Union (AU), the Commonwealth of Nations, the East African Community, the Carter Centre and the National Democratic Institute (NDI). Parliament’s delegation fully endorsed the findings of the EU EOM and underlined that - in a high stakes, polarised and competitive electoral contest - Kenyans came out in large numbers on Election Day and acted with patience, determination and enthusiasm in peacefully exercising their democratic rights.

Ethnic Barons, Handshake Politics and Raila's Accidental Legacy
Ethnic Barons, Handshake Politics and Raila’s Accidental Legacy By Willy Mutunga The handshake between President Uhuru and Raila Odinga on March 09, 2018 was not the first of baronial handshakes we have seen nor will it be the last. But the last of them will be when an alternative political leadership that can imagine our freedom and emancipation takes the reins of political power in our country. “When Baba told us he was leading us to Canaan we did not know he meant the Office of the President!” one Kenyan tweeted, expressing the views held by many including public intellectuals who did not see this turn of events coming. Hitherto, the narrative had been that the National Super Alliance (NASA) was the lesser of the two political evils, but the truth is they are both pawns in the hands of the imperialisms of the West and East. Indeed, their shared vision of looting the country can never set them apart. However, I believe the swearing-in of Raila Odinga as the People’s President on January 30, 2018, is the straw that broke the camel’s back. The narrative had been that the National Super Alliance (NASA) was the lesser of the two political evils, but the truth is they are both pawns in the hands of the imperialisms of the West and East. Indeed, their shared vision of looting the country can never set them apart. The ceremony confirmed Odinga as a leader of the new national opposition with a following to be reckoned with. Proving he had the capacity to mobilise millions could not be taken lightly or ignored.
