National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Amolo Odinga has been hitting the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) with endless demands following the nullification of President Uhuru Kenyatta’s win. Raila needs to remember that he will not be the president unless he opts to use unconstitutional means without IEBC.
The opposition leader, Wafula Chebukati led team (IEBC) to cancel the ballot printing tender awarded to Al Ghurair Printing and Publishing Company.
Raila is the company printing the papers over what he terms as links to Jubilee. Which company does Raila want to print the ballot papers? Does he want to print them himself?
The opposition leader has also been pushing for the resignation of IEBC Ezra Chiloba from the commission. According to Raila and his team, Chiloba is among the people to blame for the loss he suffered during the last general election.
Raila now wants everything done according to his will. The former prime minister is hated and loved in equal measure because of his deeds. The nation has been held hostage for weeks following the nullification of the election. We need to move on with life.
Leaving IEBC to do its job is among the ways that will go back life to normal.
