The National Security Advisory Committee (NSAC) warned IEBC Chair Wafula Chebukati not to declare William Ruto as the president-elect
In an affidavit by Commissioner Abdi Guliye, he claims that the security committee was led by the Principal Administrate Secretary in the office of president Kennedy Kihara, Solicitor General Kennedy Ogeto, IG Hillary Mutyambai and vice chief of defence forces lieutenant general Francis Omondi Ogola.
Guliye claims that at 2pm, an hour before Chebukati declared results, Deputy Inspector General of Police Noor Gabow went to the holding room and informed him that a team from NSAC had arrived at the tallying centre and wanted to meet Chebukati.
Chebukati was busy at the time but he indicated he would convene a brief meeting with the commissioners at 2 pm regarding the final results and to listen to the visiting team.
At the meeting, Kihara relayed their message that if the commission declared Ruto as president-elect ‘the country is going to burn’.
According to Guliye, Kihara proceeded to indicate that skirmishes between the Kikuyu and Luo communities had already started in several slums including Kibera and Mathare on the basis of alleged betray by the Kikuyus.
“Kihara proceeded to caution us that if we proceeded with the declaration of the results with Ruto as president-elect and chaos erupt, ‘then the blood of the dead Kenyans’ will be on our hands,” Guliye said.
The second message from the NSAC delegation was that if we cannot announce Raila as the outright winner, then we must ensure there is a run-off.
After Kihara concluded his remarks, Chebukati invited us to share our views, the four dissenting commissioners were the first to comment and said the message warrants serious consideration.
They supported the adoption of the communication with the delegation “ before taking a decision as to the results to be announced”.
“I on the hand said that the commission has a constitutional mandate to fulfil and in declaring the result it will be guided by the same constitution,” Guliye says.
Chebukati at the same time said they had an oath of office which required fidelity to the constitution.
After the delegation left at 3 pm, CEO Marjan Marjan walked in with the final results and handed a copy to all the commissioners and the four commissioners protested and insisted the results should be changed in the light of the NSAC delegation communication.
Masit and Wanderi, were of the view that the results should be pushed towards a rerun which in their view would be a win-win situation.
Cherera then suggested the margin is not too big and could be manipulated by moving 233,211 votes from Ruto to the rejected ballots category.
“Having heard the views of all the commissioners the chairman. Indicated he would not discuss the subversion of the will of the people and he would announce and the declare the final results in accordance with the verified tallies” the affidavit states.
Regarding the 27 constituencies, Guliye says the results had already been verified in the presence of agents of the candidates and included in the final tally in form 34C.
He further claims that earlier in the day at 3am on the morning of August 15, Raphael Tuju, former senator Amos Wako and Advocate Kyalo Mbobu visited IEBC chair Wafula Chebukati.
At the meeting, Tuju told Chebukati that it was necessary for the results to be moderated in favour of Baba and that any contrary declaration of results would plunge the country into chaos.
“He suggested in the event it was not possible to declare ‘baba’ as the president-elect then the commission should force a run off. He indicated that should his request be granted it would be adequately rewarded,” Guliye claims.
Senator Wako said they had come to ask the commission not to operate in a vacuum and that it must consider the link between the election results to be declared and the stability of the country which he described as the bigger picture.
According to Guliye, Wako proceeded to indicate that in his term as attorney general he also served as the election supervisor and in that capacity, he would moderate results guided by the need to achieve law and stability in the country.
“Having heard the sentiments of Tuju and Wako, the chairperson invited the commissioners to comment. Commissioners Cherera, Nyang’aya, Masit and Wanderi agreed with the remarks of both Wako and Tuju”
Guliye however, did not agree with what was going on saying he did not know the outcome of the elections at that point and any such discussion was unwelcome.
Commissioner Boya Molu similarly refused to entertain the discussion, view that was also shared by CEO Marjan Marjan.
Chebukati on the other hand said we would respect the will of the people and announce the results as per the final tally from all the polling stations.

This very serious..
-
Pundit, do you think these charges of blatant criminality within IEBC makes it more or less likely that the SCORK will invalidate the elections? And if they do, do you think the same bunch will be allowed to conduct another election instead of facing prosecution? The crisis is being created and you guys have fallen right into it. The moment Chebukati took it from a debate about the Constitution (who has right to announce/verify etc) to criminality (they tried to change results etc) which has led to these rich cross-accusations of serious criminality among the Commissioners and IEBC staff, the crisis was well on its way to the oven.

dear Mami
uhuru's power is limited during the electoral process. ruto knew this and executed a civilian coup against the state. internal security consulted with stakeholders. it was agreed that uhuru needed to use his executive powers to stop chebukati. after deliberations uhuru asked he be given night to make the decision. he choose not to arrest chebukati and ca off the tally. it is only him at this point who knows rhe reasons. he may have consulted his inner circle and decided he didn't have the power to do so. I got this information from a second source that has very close ties within county commissioners group. uhuru is the one who let the coup happen to what end or why we don't know.
remember Alai on Friday before announcement making this tweet "uhuru has saved the day". that was what he was alluding to. everyone was waiting for uhuru to get the process stopped and elections annulled
-
Pundit let me check the timeline of the information I have
Uhuru seems made the decision to illigitimize chebukati
we are in a constitutional crisis and there will be war soon coz I do not see anyway any group walks away from this power play
-
There is no war that ufool can hope to win..Ruto has support of Kenya and international community..what is required is for Ruto loyal forces to execute a few fools like uhuru n we proceed.Your man has messes up big time . Mutyabai is first to go down..I expect to see many going down.Ruto has to step up the crushing of the fools to save Kenya

You're just making kalenjin run this country for 100yrs instead of 10yrs.Because if violence start you know the winner .If kalenjin shed blood to get what everyone know Ruto won then you're never getting it..Wacha ile ya moi.Ruto has the upper hand now...he has the legitimate mandate..and that is all needed to stay in power.

News dropping slowly by slowly. After Ruto is sworn in you will hear jaw-dropping news, especially the failed kidnap of the Chebukati by men from Statehouse minutes after they had be paid wholesomely. A lot of people will be dying the next few weeks to months. Thanks to incorruptible Chebukati and Ruto's efficiency and effectiveness. If Ruto wasn't tough, his win would have been taken just like that. Supreme court has enough evidence to rule in Ruto's favor, but I think they will be threatened and forced to nullify election. The great thing is Ruto will win either way in the end and will severely deal with merchants of impunity mercilessly.

The easiest route because uhuru need four judges is to make three judges abscond as supreme court quorom is five judges.That will make the case dead on arrival.So right now it's obviously the same competition we saw in IEBC.Ruto is defending..he only need three.. Uhuru is attacking he needs four
-
I doubt they will dare nullify. The four gentlemen sitting in the supreme court won't dare nullify elections based on the strong evidence. They also won't risk being viewed as pariahs or classified the same as Njoki Ndung'u.
I am worried about Martha Koome, but she may just decide to save her career.
Mwilu's connection to Wako is a course of concern.
But the honourable judges know they hold the last cards. Once they declare Ruto won there will be nothing anyone else can do.

Ruto needs intelligence on all the judges so he can stay ahead..this political court...they are going to be under immense pressure but definitely Raila case like in 2017 has no legs... before a proper court

How was Chebukati able to escape this kidnap attempt? who helped him? I also thought noor gubow saved the situation at bomas or was it otherwise? This is very, very, dangerous what uhuru is doing. I think ruto is being very measured. He is the president and he can't act like these guys. He has to be more responsible and hold the country together.

It's very simple.I wasn't there but I believe this was the case.
There were two security groupings at Bomas.
1) Police AP GSU who were protecting iebc officials and office of the president group.
2) Ruto's Guards which numbered around 60 and mostly kalenjin.
These two groups were armed with serious weapons and no right thinking officer would have dared use a fire arm otherwise it would have been blood bath.

chebukati didn't escape. uhuru just let him. uhuru didn't deal with him the way security council had recommended
uhuru indecision let everyone that was proazimio down.
