Wiper deputy party leader Shakila Abdalla has faulted the supreme court ruling that upheld President Uhuru Kenyatta's re-election in the October 26 repeat presidential election.Shakila argues that the apex court erred in upholding Uhuru's victory.Speaking to journalists in Lamu Town on Wednesday, Shakila alleged that the repeat poll was marred by irregularities and was not conducted in conformity with the law.The Wiper deputy leader said the fact that some constituencies in the country did not post presidential results was enough reason to have the poll nullified.She claimed that the Supreme Court judges might have been intimidated to rule in the manner they did."The October 26 repeat poll was shambolic and did not meet the standards of a credible election and it is unfortunate that the Supreme Court didn't see that," she said.Shakila argued that majority of Kenyans feel aggrieved, adding that it will be hard to bring together Kenyans after the controversial repeat poll.She, however, said NASA will go on with its quest for electoral reforms.She said the Jubilee government should be ready to dialogue on how to review and implement electoral reforms that will guard against election injustices.“As NASA our resolve to push for what we believe is right for all Kenyans will not stop, " she said.The Supreme Court upheld Uhuru's re-election on Monday in a unanimous ruling. The ruling paves way for Uhuru's swearing-in on Tuesday next week.
