[Photo|PSCU]President Uhuru Kenyatta dismissed a ruling by the Supreme Court, that saw him, and his Deputy William Ruto's August 8 presidential election victory nullified.Led by its leader Raila Odinga and his Deputy Kalonzo Musyoka, Nasa filed a petition contesting Kenyatta's win, saying their victory had been stolen.On Friday, the court ruled that the electoral body, IEBC, had conducted an election marred by irregularities, and nullified it, ordering another presidential election within 60, days.However in a quick rejoinder, Uhuru dismissed the ruling, saying judges decision is not the decision of millions of Kenyans who voted for him.He said Kenyans voted for him, and that despite the ruling, he would still go back to the people and ask them for votes."We do not agree with the ruling but we respect the decision of the court. I urge you to maintain peace and love each other. A decision of six or seven people is not the decision of the people. We believe in democracy and we are ready for the second round. We believe in the peace and unity of our country. I thank Kenyans for electing Jubilee leaders and enabling us to have a majority," Uhuru said during a press briefing at State House Nairobi, flanked by his deputy William Ruto.Click here to watch Uhuru's full speech.
