Supreme Court judges absolved President Uhuru Kenyatta from any blame in the August 8 General Election, as they gave their reasons for annulling last month’s presidential vote results.

Although Chief Justice David Maraga, his deputy Philomena Mwilu, and justices Smokin Wanjala and Isaac Lenaola, who gave a majority judgement, ruled that the electoral commission committed irregularities to warrant nullification of Uhuru’s win, they did not find any misconduct on the part of the President.
