Opposition leader Raila Odinga has now claimed that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission had four servers.
Speaking on Wednesday, he said the presidential poll results only came from one of the four servers.
Raila noted that one was in the Netherlands, another in Venezuela, while the third was at the IEBC offices at Anniversary Towers.
The fourth he claimed was in the Industrial Area.
"Nataka muelewe vizuri. Tuligundua kulikuwa na servers nne. Moja ilikuwa kule Uholanzi in the clouds. Pili ilikuwa kule Venezuela kule ambapo kuna mtu anaitwa Jose Camargo. Tatu ilikuwa hapa Anniversary Towers mahali IEBC iko na nne ilikuwa pale Industrial Area. Katika Bomas of Kenya kulikuwa na Portal pale matokeo ilikuwa inaingia. Kati ya zile servers nne moja pekee ndio ilikuwa inatuma matokeo Bomas na hio ilikuwa ile server ya Venezuela," Raila said during a meeting with Grassroots leaders ahead of their weekend Jacaranda Rally.
This loosely translates to, "I want you to understand. We discovered that there were four servers. One in Holland (Netherlands), another in Venezuela where there was a person called Jose Camargo, the third at Anniversary Towers and the fourth in Industrial Area. At the Bomas of Kenya there was the portal where results were being transmitted to. Of the four servers only one was sending results, the one in Venezuela."
He claimed that the plan was hatched by former IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati and two other commissioners Yakub Guliye and Molu Boya.
He insisted that the poll results were ready as early as August 10, 2022 but Chebukati and his accomplices delayed to try hide traces of what they were doing.
He said that their whistleblower's account is the truth and that is why Chebukati has remained silent.
On Monday, at the Kamukunji rally, Raila said he does not recognise Ruto as the legitimately elected president of Kenya.
"We do not recognise the Kenya Kwanza administration as a legitimate government and Ruto as the president or any official in his government," Raila said.
Raila also called on Kenyans to reject the promises made by the government saying it is resorting to despondency.
"We are asking Kenyans to resist the punitive taxes on common products by this regime," he said.
The Azimio leader further said a forensic audit of the IEBC results must be undertaken and that it is unnegotiable.
