The election period in Kenya always leaves behind words that will trend in the mouths and social pages of Kenyans over a time.
In the August 8, polls words like Tibim, Form 34A, 34B, and 34C made headlines as some of the most searched words on Google search as Kenyans sought for the most accurate definition.
Immediately after NASA leader Raila Odinga withdrew from the October 26 repeat polls, another word is currently trending on twitter as Kenyans seek for answers.
The word is non-other than Form 24A, which is a form a presidential candidate submits to the IEBC in the event he or she seeks to withdraw from an election after being gazetted.
Here are some of the post, Kenyans have shared seeking for answers.
It must also be noted that Raila Odinga did not withdraw his candidature by following the legally prescribed format through Form 24A.

So IEBC and their Jubilee masters think they're too smart and Raila dumb that he didn't factor in that form 24A? You people never learn.
