This is what could happen to Raila if he is sworn in as president on December 12

National Super Alliance (NASA) leader Raila Odinga on 28 November announced that he will be sworn in as the ‘legitimate’ president of Kenya on Jamhuri Day, 12 December. Raila said this while addressing his supporters along Manyanja Road, Eastlands.

“I will be sworn in as President of Kenya on Jamhuri Day (December 12) through the people’s assembly, and go to State House. We will meet to discuss the matter and direct on the way forward,” said Raila.

“You know me very well, I am not a coward. We are not going to be inaugurated in the same way Kizza Besigye was sworn-in in Uganda. We will be sworn in the same way that Zimbabwe’s President Emmerson Mnangagwa was sworn in,” he continued.

However, Raila being sworn-in amounts to treason and allied offences under Chapter 63 of the Constitution of Kenya. This is because being sworn-in means overtaking the position of the President.
