National Super Alliance (Nasa) leader Musalia Mudavadi says many Kenyans can still influence and change the current direction of the country.
Mudavadi said the repeat poll conducted on October 26 indicated the opposition still has numbers.
“In the sham election, the voter turnout was below 30 percent, meaning out there you had more than 70 percent of registered voters who stayed away from the voting process. That tells anybody who is keen with the political situation in the country they must take it seriously the fact that when faced with a referendum, Kenyans can make vital decisions concerning a new order,” he said.
The Amani National Congress leader said once Kenyans make up their mind after discussions and debates in people’s assemblies, they can petition for the changes they want.
The NASA co-principal faulted the governance systems in the country aren’t heeding to the democratic processes anymore, saying Kenyans must not bury their heads in the sand but must have a closer look at the executive structure of the country which has become very exclusive.
“We must look at how our institutions are being used to be involved in political matters like the police who have been very brutal and have forced certain issues,” he said.
