Narc Kenya leader Martha Karua has still not come to terms with their Azimio defeat.

She said her calculations are not adding up.

In a video seen by the Star, Karua said even if the Nairobi governor, comes from UDA, most of the MCA's are from Azimio and it had more votes from the city.

She said she cannot believe they were defeated and is considering taking the matter to the East African Court.

“But since the court gave its verdict, let Kenya continue and move forward, that is the rule of law and democracy,” Karua said.

"There is nowhere else we can go to argue on presidential election results, but we can take the case to another place, to understand if it is true our court gave us justice.”

Karua said her further persuasions will not be about the results anymore but more about seeking justice.

“Now is not about the election, it's about justice, the court said our evidence was a hot air balloon, this, can take me to East Africa just to discuss that judgement,” she said.

Karua it was a personal decision to make sure justice was served right.

“This is not Azimio's vision, this is me as a Kenyan because I'm entitled as an individual. So it's something I'm considering but for now, because I have time I'm taking a break and also to wait for the court to give its reasons after the 21 days,” she said.

On September 5, Karua said she respects the decision of the Supreme Court after it upheld the August election.

“The court has spoken. I respect but disagree with the findings,” she said.
