President Uhuru Kenyatta has defended the move by Jubilee MPs to amend the election laws in parliament.
Speaking at a rally in Mumias, the president said that the move by the MPs was for the good of the country as it would prevent any other nullification of presidential elections.
He said the Supreme Court’s judgment showed flaws in the law that required to be fixed to avoid a recurrence of errors that led to the nullificatio.
“To avoid another election from being nullified, we have Parliament to fix the areas that failed us on August 8," he said
"We now have amendments to rectify the lapses in the electoral process. The amendments we are pushing for will ensure the much-needed reforms,” he said.
