The National Super Alliance (Nasa) leader Raila Odinga has reiterated his stand, that the Jubilee Party, lead by President Uhuru Kenyatta, and his deputy William Ruto, stole his victory, in the August 8 polls.
Citing the Supreme Court ruling that annulled Uhuru's victory, after he filed a petition, Raila likened Uhuru (Jubilee), to a thief who would steal clothes of someone taking bath at a river.
"Someone removed his clothes to take a bath at a river. Suddenly, a thief came to steal the clothes. He put them on, and started running. Upon realising, the owner hurriedly started following the thief. On the road, he kept shouting ''thief! thief!'', only for the people to think that the naked man (owner), was the a mad man," said Raila, Sunday.
Addressing supporters at Nairobi's Masinde Muliro Grounds in Mathare, Raila said the international community thought Nasa was cooking up allegations after they lamented that the IEBC had subverted its victory.
"Nasa is the naked man and owner of the clothes and we followed the thief until we caught him. So they thought we were the mad man because we were running without clothes. We caught the thief now. Jubilee stole our clothes. Uhuru and Ruto ran away with our clothes," he added, amid chants from the crowd.
Raila further hailed the Supreme Court, saying its ruling brought justice to the nation.
