ICT Cabinet Secretary Joe Mucheru has refuted claims by Amani National Congress party that the government is plotting to rig the August elections through technology.In a statement on Thursday, Mucheru warned that the allegations made by ANC could destabilise the country, adding that the government has no capacity to manipulate general elections."These guys are just speculating. Can they concentrate on the ongoing voter registration exercise instead of making allegations that only serve to heighten public anxiety?" he posed as quoted by the Star."They have no facts to back their wild allegations," he added. ANC had on Wednesday called for a probe into the ministries of Interior and ICT, observing that the State could use them to rig the elections. "Jubilee Party’s launch of the smart card and the timing of their countrywide membership registration is designed to coincide with the ongoing voter registration for an ulterior maneuver to connect Jubilee election rigging experts to the IEBC voters’ database," said Amani secretary general Geoffrey Osotsi.
