President Uhuru Kenyatta has maintained that he will easily win the October 17 presidential election.
Speaking during his tour of the Uasin Gishu County, Kenyatta said Odinga has never accepted defeat, and he will once again prove that he rightly received the mandate to assume another term by Kenyans.
“The will of Kenyans will prevail. He has never accepted defeat and has always raised false claims. We will prove to you that you have always lost fairly despite your claims,” said the President.
“Come out in full force. Prove them wrong. The supreme will of the people is vested in the people of Kenya,” he added.
During the tour, the president urged his Jubilee Party supporters to remain peaceful, even as they prepare to vote in the October 17 elections.
His once again took issue with the Supreme Court ruling last week, saying they did not say that he (Kenyatta) did not win.
“He (Raila) complained about the transmission but never said that he got more votes. He knows that if his claim was that he got more votes, a recount would have proved him wrong,” said the President Eldoret.
“Let him say what he wants and let him plan what he wants but he should know that what is important is the votes from wananchi and they are ready to exercise their will,” he added.
