The Supreme Court of Kenya on Monday ruled to uphold the election of president Uhuru Kenyatta.
In a ruling delivered by Chief Justice David Maraga, the six justices unanimously ruled against all petitions filed by former assistant minister Harun Mwau and another by Njonjo Mue and Khelef Khalifa.
The six judges, Chief Justice David Maraga and his deputy Philomena Mwilu, justices Jackton Ojwang, Smokin Wanjala, Njoki Ndung’u and Isaac Lenaola retired on Thursday to deliberate on the petitions.
In the much-awaited verdict, Chief Justice David Maraga said all petitions were not merited. He said that a detailed judgment will be issued within 21 days.
