This will go down as one of Kenya’s most fateful weeks. With two days to the repeat presidential election ordered by the Supreme Court in its ruling on a petition fi led by the National Super Alliance challenging Uhuru Kenyatta’s August 8 election, the question is not whether the election will take place or not.
It is whether the outcome will be acceptable across the country. With Raila Odinga’s withdrawal, all indications are that Uhuru Kenyatta will be voted back to o? ce. But to govern effectively Kenyatta will need a convincing win.
