The judges held a pre-trial conference of the presidential petition on Tuesday. 

The court consolidated all the seven petitions challenging the win of President-elect William Ruto into one.

Koome said this is because all the petitioners raised the same issues highlighted by the lead petitioner, Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition.
