The Azimio brigade has yet again promised to "unearth" what it terms as the filth that befell the August 9 polls which William Ruto won.

In a statement on Thursday, the coalition leadership said their dossier will build on the 'evidence' released by IEBC whistleblowers.

"The data released by the whistleblowers is a bombshell that compels every Kenyan of goodwill to ask themselves if indeed we still have a democracy," the leaders said.

The statement was signed by Martha Karua, Kalonzo Musyoka, Wycliffe Oparanya, Jeremiah Kioni, Junet Mohammed, Robert Mbui and Makau Mutua.

The Azimio leader Raila Odinga is away on a week-long tour of South Africa which started Friday last week.

"In a few days, our coalition leader who is abroad will be arriving in the country and we shall give Kenyans a way forward."

The leaders said the data in their possession calls into question the outcome of the presidential election and the credibility and legitimacy of the entire electoral system and infrastructure.

They said they will deliberate and discuss the data and provide the country with the next cause of action. 

"At that time we will collectively issue a public statement together with the data and the direction the country should take following these revelations. There are more revelations in our possession that will unearth the filth in the 2022 general elections. This was not an election but a sham," they said.

The new development comes just a day after Kioni claimed without providing evidence that Raila won the presidential election. 

"We have seen that 59 per cent of the constituencies cannot be verified with absolute certainty. What can be verified is, Raila Odinga won the elections with 8,170,355 votes representing 57.53 per cent of the votes cast. Ruto got 5,915,973 votes, representing 41.66 per cent," Kioni said in a press conference on Wednesday.

Official election results released by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission showed that Raila finished second with 6,942,930 votes representing 48.8 per cent of the votes while Ruto garnered 7,176,141 votes (50.5%).
