Talk of The Day: Hope as Jubilee, NASA meet IEBC over stalemate

Jubilee should pass the election laws as soon as possible. During the 2013 presidential petition, the Supreme Court stated that if one of the presidential candidates is not on the ballot, that election is null and void. This is where NASA is targeting. The bill seeks to amend this by making sure that if one of the presidential candidates declines to participate in an election, the one who participates and wins should be declared winner. It’s up to Jubilee to revisit 2013 Mutunga’s ruling. Koniskuk Koniskuk, Nairobi

You think the rules will hurt NASA, the Judiciary and IEBC? Bad laws affect everybody. Kibaki, Njonjo and Kamotho championed the removal of Section 2A to have Kenya a single party state. Who suffered the most? Kibaki was a leader of Government business in Parliament when the security of tenure for judges was removed. When the economy went to the dogs, everybody suffered. Just find out who suffered and died when the police allegedly brutalised UoN lecturers and students. Francis Ndirangu, Nairobi
