Lessons from the elections and what it means for country

In the space of three months, Kenya has conducted two presidential elections. On August 8, voters lined up for hours at polling stations, waiting their turn to cast votes for their representatives - President, governor, senator, Member of Parliament and Member of the County Assembly.

The results of the presidential election were contested in court by the Opposition National Super Alliance (NASA) and the Supreme Court nullified the election and directed that a repeat poll should be conducted within 60 days from the September 1 date of nullification.
