Former Law Society of Kenya president Aggrey Mwamu has said that intentions by the opposition to set up a parallel tallying center is legal.

Mwamu has dismissed claims by IEBC that the Opposition’s intention was ill-informed and against the law.

“There is no clause in the Constitution that states that the Opposition or any Kenyan cannot have a parallel tallying centre to that of IEBC,’’ argued Mr Mwamu.

He said just as IEBC has a tallying centre, so is any Kenyan entitled to create one to monitor the elections and tallying of vote

“The only thing that individuals or parties cannot do is to declare official results because that decree is vested in the IEBC,” said Mwamu.
