I spent the evening of August 8, 2017 at an inhouse election tallying centre at the office on Mombasa Road. Just like in the last elections of 2013, election night is one not to miss. The adrenaline rush from the anxiety and the excitement in the newsroom (as with all other big story days) seeing the results coming in "fast and furious" is ecstatic. When I jumped into bed the next day at 9am. Raila Odinga of the NASA coalition was trailing Jubilee's Uhuru Kenyatta.
