[PHOTOS] Raila rejects presidential results

Azimio presidential candidate Raila Odinga has rejected the presidential results announced on Monday.

The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission chairperson Wafula Chebukati announced Ruto the winner after he garnered 7,176,141 votes.

His close rival Raila received 6,942,930 votes which are 48.85 per cent of the vote.

In a press brief on Tuesday, Raila claimed that the declaration of Ruto as the president-elect was null and void.

Four IEBC commissioners out of seven distanced themselves from the results announced by Chebukati.

Raila said Chebukati's actions are dictatorial and would have led the country to violence.

"He could have plunged the country into chaos. Such impunity can be a threat to security. It is not up to us to determine whether Chebukati has committed illegality," he said. 

Raila said he will go to the Supreme Court of Kenya to challenge the presidential results.

"Let no one take the law into their own hands. We are pursuing constitutional and lawful channels to invalidate Chebukati's illegal and unconstitutional pronouncement. We are certain that justice will prevail," Raila said.
