I announced Babu Owino win in spite of errors - IEBC official

Embakasi East MP Babu Owino: He could lose his seat after IEBC admitted vote-counting errors. [File, Standard]

An Electoral Independent and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) official has told the court that he was under pressure to announce election results in Embakasi East, declaring Paul Ongili Babu Owino as the winner and therefore Embakasi Member of Parliament.

Jubilee Party aspirant Francis Mureithi has gone to court to challenge the election. He claims Owino committed an election offence by declaring himself winner before votes were tallied and that the elections were marred with irregularities, intimidation and violence.
