A petitioner seeking to have President-elect William Ruto's victory overturned has accused electoral commission chairman Wafula Chebukati of unilaterally tallying and verifying presidential results before declaring them.
Through lawyer Zehrabanu Janmohamed, John Njoroge argued that Mr Chebukati acted unlawfully by locking out other commissioners in the tallying and verification exercise.
Ms Janmohamed told the Supreme Court in Nairobi on Wednesday that tallying and verification of results is a constitutional mandate of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), in its entirety, citing Article 138 of the Constitution that outlines the said role.
