Time to Focus on Duale Has Come

Though he is doing more good for CORD than he is helping JP, it is my opinion that he has to be defined and neutralised immediately.

Jubilee Party has said Cord leader Raila Odinga is plotting to use technology to rig the 2017 General Election.

Speaking at the party's headquarters in Pangani, National Assembly Majority Leader Aden Duale said that Mr Odinga's insistence on the use of biometric voter registration (BVR) is suspect.

"Why is Raila insisting on BVR technology? We know he wants to use it to rig the 2017 elections," said Mr Duale.

He added: "Technology can be compromised. Systems failed, they were even hacked. So why is he insisting that we do not provide for alternative voter identification and transmission of results?"

Also, Mr Duale said Jubilee will demand the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) table a report before the National Assembly of resources received from external donors.

He also defended the decision to have "alternative" identification of voters and transmission of results in place in case technology that will be used stalls.

"Even in our homes, we have candles just in case the lights go off. If they do not, then we do not use the candles," he said.

Describing Mr Odinga's statements against the electoral commission as a sign of a "state of panic", he said the Opposition leader should, "Use your last bullet. If it cannot work, hang your political boots. It is not a must that you rule this country".

CORD has made it clear that if they tamper with the IEBC deal we go back to the streets. The ball is in their court.

Duale is so scared of what will happen to him when Jubilee loses because he made too many enemies with his lose mouth.
