The Kenya Supreme Court has upheld the declaration of William Ruto and Rigathi Gachagua as president-elect and deputy president-elect as announced by the electoral body on August 15.
In a unanimous decision, the seven judges of the apex court dismissed the seven presidential election petitions including one filed by Raila Odinga and his running mate Martha Karua saying Dr Ruto was validly elected.
“The presidential election petitions… as consolidated are hereby dismissed as a consequence we declare that president-elect to be valid,” Chief Justice Matha Koome said.
The decision paves the way for Ruto, 55, to be sworn in as Kenya’s 5th president in the coming days.
