Devolution Cabinet Secretary Mwangi Kiunjuri has taken a swipe on Opposition coalition NASA on its call for the IEBC to suspend the ballot paper printing tender awarded to Dubai-based firm Al Ghurair.
Speaking in Voi on Thursday, Kiunjuri claimed that NASA's demands shows lack of poll preparedness from the opposition side.
He added that the Opposition is a panic mode with just less than 55 days to the polls.
“You had time to plan but 53 days to elections you want to stop the ballot papers printing process. That is like saying you are not ready for the elections. Elections will go on as planned," Kiunjuri said.
“Many strong candidates have left their team and joined us. They come to you empty-handed but today we have brought you food," he added.
He further claimed that President Kenyatta was headed for a resounding victory during the forthcoming polls.
"We defeated them when Uhuru and the DP had court cases at the ICC. Will they beat us when we are free?" He posed.
