Nakuru-based political analyst Abdul Noor said that Ruto and Raila have personalised the IEBC crisis and are taking the country the wrong direction.

Noor accused the two for attempting to settle their old scores by taking hard stances in the stalemate.

"Ruto thinks he will use IEBC to finish Raila and Raila wants to use the same IEBC to finish Ruto and that is what is creating the stalemate," he said.

The political analyst predicted that the IEBC crisis would remain unresolved if Raila and Ruto did put aside their selfish and personal interests for the greater good of the nation.

"Unless Ruto and Raila stop personalising the IEBC crisis, we won't get a solution any time soon," said Noor.

Noor further called on President Uhuru Kenyatta to step in and offer true leadership by personally committing to resolve the IEBC impasse for the good of all Kenyans.

"The President must take this opportunity to cement his legacy by saving Kenya from another bloodshed over the IEBC issue. Let him personally deal with the IEBC issue for the interests of the nation and the people of Kenya," he said.

If the IEBC issue remains unsettled, it is feared that the country could plunge into disorder similar to that witnessed during the 2007/2008 post-poll chaos.
