President Uhuru Kenyatta has broken his silence on the final
Supreme Court verdict that was delivered on Wednesday.
President Kenyatta delivered a rather emotional address at
State House where he met leaders from North Eastern region.
The Jubilee Presidential candidate lamented that the
Judiciary was turning Kenya into a dictatorship where a few judges can
overturn the popular will of the people.
"We are seeing dictatorship in Kenya. It a shocker when
someone says numbers do not matter, its the processes. Someone just
decides to take Kenyans to the ballot again. Is this democracy?" the head
of state remarked.
Kenyatta was responding to part of the ruling read by Deputy
Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu which stated that the process used in arriving at
election results had to be credible.
A visibly disappointed Jubilee leader stated that the
Judiciary was lucky to have a President who was law-abiding, noting that Kenya
would have been divided in other circumstances.
"The Judiciary is lucky because they are dealing with a
Humble, Cool, law abiding, and a Peaceful President!" Kenyatta added.
The Jubilee Presidential candidate added that he was ready
to participate in the repeat elections on any date set by the IEBC.
