When the Supreme Court starts sitting today (Monday, August 22), it will be the fourth time it will consider a presidential petition since the promulgation of the 2010 Constitution.
The first petition was in 2013 when Raila Odinga, the flagbearer of CORD, challenged Uhuru Kenyatta's win. The court upheld Uhuru's victory.
The second petition was in 2017 when Raila, the Nasa presidential candidate, successfully challenged President Kenyatta's re-election in the presidential poll held on August 8 of the same year.
