OPINION: President Uhuru and Raila need to come together to stop the confusion in Kenya

As a country, we are faced with plethora of uncertainties. Kenyans flocked to the polling stations on 8/8/2017 to vote among other others, a presidential candidate. After a long day in the queues to exercise their democratic right, vote counting began in earnest. As votes trickled and Kenyans were glued to their Tvs and Radios, Raila Odinga who was the biggest threat to President Uhuru Kenyatta retaining the coveted seat told the nation that he had once again been rigged. This has moved the country in a state of confusion and fear, with the opposition candidate earlier stating that seeking a court redress will be the last thing he will do.

Luckily, the former Prime Minister swallowed his pride and turned to the court. Led by senior counsel James Orengo, the petitioner's team fought a hard battle on the the floor of the Supreme Court and ultimately won the case in a historic ruling.
