Elected leaders allied to National Super Alliance (NASA) have threatened to swear in Raila Odinga as president.
The leaders said that should Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) declare President Uhuru the winner of October 26th election, they would equally declare and swear in Raila using the cancelled August 8th poll.
Speaking at Athi River, Machakos County on Saturday led by Siaya senator James Orengo and former senator Johnstone Muthama, the opposition politicians said they will not recognize Uhuru's win in the repeat poll.
“We will use August 8 results to swear NASA presidential candidate Raila Odinga if Uhuru Kenyatta tries to use October 26 poll results to be sworn in,” said Orengo.
"Sisi hatumtambui Uhuru kama Rais wa Kenya na NASA pia haimtambui, sheria inasema serikali ya Kenya itaundwa kikatiba. It is our decision that Uhuru cannot use the October 26 election results to be sworn in, that will be an act of treason”.
Orengo added that Nasa had information that votes garnered by President Uhuru in Thursday's election were doctored figures.
“The executive authority of Republic of Kenya is with the people of Kenya, the constitution says you have the sovereign authority. Uhuru does not have sovereign authority, you people have,” Orengo said.
He vowed that Nasa will lead a movement to reclaim the country back from oppressors.
“We must get our country back, tumeanza safari sasa. Former President Daniel Moi said Kenya is a unitary state but later agreed that we have multiparty after Raila Odinga fought for it," he said.
“Raila Odinga alipambana na Kenyatta wa kwanza mpaka akafa, Moi alienda nyumbani baada ya kufunga Raila, Kibaki joked with Raila and he went home, Uhuru Kenyatta will go home and Raila Odinga will come to be the President of Kenya,” said Orengo.

NASA has a parallel tally of the August 8 polling station results, based on copies of 34As its polling station agents signed. The country would benefit from knowing the true results from NASA's tally.
Unadaganya Nani? NRM did not have agents in the repeat polls. Go manufacture another one.
Sorry MaragA, I meant 8 August election. Numbers for fresh election do not mean much.
Go ahead and give us the tally since you seem to be privy to the 'true results' (Akombe I wonder?). But take note that IEBC numbers are what the law recognizes. Everything else is hearsay.
Not Akombe! I don't know the numbers. Court said IEBC's were not tallied correctly. Jubilee is unlikely to report true numbers from polling stations, although they must have them. I would like to see true numbers from NASA.
Right! And for the F of it, they decided not to share with the world . NRM is a party of liars, fabricators, cheats, blood thirsty , power hungry individuals and they are the worst in cooking numbers . Ati parallel . They couldn't even prove crap in court .
guest0. Good point.
I guess it has not burned enough until Orengo burns his fingers for playing with fire. Until that happens we will continue to see this reckless freedom of expression from this so called senior lawyer who is thriving on twisting the law in knots.
Ben. Rubbish!!!!!! Which Fire? Wacha "tutisho" twako twa "pesa nane".
Rubbish is your other name.... I will explain it to you like a baby. If Orengo continues to stoke anarchy, he might soon be a victim of that same anarchy. Warlords also die by the bullet.
@Ben. Guest1's rubbished brain cannot fathom past events in Liberia, Sierra Leone, S. Sudan, DRC, Angola, Mozambique, etc. Examples are many but we never learn.
@ Maraga- At this point you can't drill any logic to guest1, Doreen, anonymous Nasa side etc. They are so ingrained in their hate aka facts, it was ingrained as kids, that kind of brainwashing is hard to erase. I have decided going forward, no need to entertain any dialogue from them. Let then reply , cut n paste till the cows come home!

The electoral commission was on Saturday faced with hard questions on the tallying of presidential vote numbers even as it raced against time to complete verifying details from polling stations and constituencies across the country.
Confusion on the number of votes received by Jubilee Party presidential candidate Uhuru Kenyatta and the voter turnout marked the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) briefing.
In his final briefing of the day on Thursday night, IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati said the turnout was 48 per cent as at the time the polling closed.
This translated to some 9.4 million of the 19.6 million registered voters. But hours later, Mr Chebukati revised the figure to about 34 per cent.
PERFORMED DISMALLY
“The 48 per cent was a best estimate turnout from the team. Latest actual figures from 267 constituencies show 6,553,858 Kenyans turned out to vote,” he tweeted at 11 pm, about six hours after polling had closed.

Question: Brita Damary tell the UhuRuto Team that "This is NOLONGER a Rescue Mission! It's a RECOVERY Mission!!! (unless they think "The Missing People are Still ALIVE").
What's this recovery/ rescue mission got to do with Rao trying to steal the presidency? FYI every rescue mission is followed by a recovery mission. Recovery is not just for bodies but aircraft parts, blackbox.....for purpose of investigation, liability, insurance and closure. Stop getting into things you do not grasp @guest1
This is an Example of the UhuRuto Government bring a FAILURE on Thinking Right!
NASA's Movement is:About CIVIL Disobedience, CIVIL Resistance (by Legal Means; NOT an Armed Force (like Mungiki). We are going to use all the LEGAL and COBSTITUTIONAL Means to Put Pressure on the Kenya Government to do what is Sane and Just; Fair and Square.”
Once upon a time, Wycliffe Matakwei and his SDLF commanders made an attempt. The rest is history.
Does anyone have anymore doubt that Joshua Machar arap Kony led 1982 coup?
Continued garbage from this people. Uhuru government should not take such comments lightly. This is treanous comments and hope they would be placed under house arrest away from all this incitement’s..April 6th.1994 Was normal day in Rwanda the next day 80,000 people had died..This must stop.,
Yup, they are back to their little games of fanning the flames. I hope they know what happens when they rattle a snake.
Swear him in as who? By which powers?
Those comparing their endowments with the President are being smoked-out, YET nasa/nrm has continued to utter treasonable statements and nothing is happening to them. SINCE WHEN IS RAO and HIS COHORTS ABOVE THE LAW?

Have you realised NAsa leaders also don't do any meaningful economic activity. They are holding daily press conferences. They spend whole day writing a statement which they read towards end of day. And they hold these at okoa HQ coz they cannot afford high end hotels. What time is today's presser?
MaragA. Economic Activity? FYI:1.Raila (by Doing Economic Business/ as Opposed to Economic CORRUPTION) is a Billionare (and about to be a Trillionaire). And it's because of His doing of ECONOMY(ics). 2.The COOKING GAS and other Products Kenya's ENJOY in Kenya: Where do you think they come from? From Raila's Businesses and ECONOMY(ics)! 3. The Road and Highway INFRASTRUCTURES you see in Kenya Right Now are Raila-IMPLIMENTED and Rubberstamped (during His Road Ministry and KIB-RAILA Era). And etc. Kibaki was so Sick to Impliment anything.
MaragA. Then you and Jubilee STOP! using COOKING Gas in Kenya plus the Thika HIGHWAYS and Other Road INFRASTRUCTURES in Kenya. Why? Raila is MAJORLY Responsible for the Forementioned. Wewe na Watu Wall ZISUSIE zote!
If Kenya goes to the dogs, even Orengo will not have a life, or even his god Raila. Do not poison the well because you need to drink from it sometime.
Muuaji Raila has already declared himself as a head of terror organization called-NASA RESISTANCE MOVEMENT.He should be dealt with mercilessly like other terrorists.
We do have two countries in one--People's republic of Kenya and Central Republic of Kenya.
This may actual solve the problem we have in Kenya.
The tale of two countries living in Kenya.
Why don't y'all start building a wall and pay for it :-). Nonsense talk, your that other country gets same devt funds like everyone else, if you squander it, live in big hotels and buy gas guzzlers for your officials that is not the govt problem that Nyanza is poor. Take responsibility , something that what you support lacks!
Am not from Nyanza.
Redirect your comment.
When was the vote to have two Kenyans takeN? must have been asleep...Two countries in to one?, its usually they other way round, one splits into two...
In neighboring Uganda the Forum for Democratic Change adamantly prepared to "swear-in" Kizza Besigye "as president," officials in government were dismissing the opposition party's actions as desperate.
According to the Electoral Commission, FDC's Besigye lost to President Museveni in the February 18 election, but the party rejected those official results. On the following Tuesday after the election, the executive director of the Uganda Media Centre, Ofwono Opondo, described as "an exercise in futility" the insistence by FDC that Besigye would take his own oath of office the same day that Museveni, the legally-elected president, would take up the instruments of power.
Besigye eventually beat the surveillance of his Kasangati home and turned up in downtown Kampala, FDC officials saying he had gone "to greet his supporters" after taking his oath of office. The FDC-founding president was arrested and, according to reports, flown to Moroto district in the far-flung Karamoja sub-region.
Early the following thursday morning, a video emerged showing Besigye's purported "swearing-in ceremony." In the video,Besigye was seen walking up to a podium and a lady in judicial garb guiding him through the oath. After that, Besigye signs a document bearing the court of arms and titled, 'oath of allegiance."
Seated behind Besigye were a number of senior FDC officials, including party chairman Wasswa Biriggwa, Leader of Opposition in Parliament Wafula Oguttu, FDC Secretary for Mobilisation Ingrid Turinawe, Busia Woman MP Kevina Taaka, Kumi MP Patrick Amuriat and Tororo MP Geoffrey Ekanya, who was the national chairman of Besigye's 2016 presidential campaign task force.
It cannot get crazier than this. Total madness.
And yet again UHURU is the winner , This voting event was largely peaceful even though we had
few incidents of violence on some parts of the country. I am proud of our security for maintaining the
peace and also at the same time encouraging them to anticipate for anything out of the ordinary.
I echoes the words of our president on MASHUJAA DAY ,THAT OUR COUNTRY CANNOT BECOME AN ANARCHY. We are
not disputing we got no problems but meanwhile we need leadership in the country while we continue
working on solving our problems . President Uhuru is the legitimately elected president ,Also we must not forget the tyranny of
numbers theory previously put forward by Mutahi Ngunyi.It is for a fact Our Gova is not gonna do everything for every single Kenyan but I would them concentrate on
on making Government institutions run effective for example roads ministry , the education ministry , the healthy ministry and many others , Our Government should make sure our economy is in good shape and also our
security need to be completely overhauled to reflect the changing times .The Gova should appoint competitive and agile
personnel to run our Government institutions.
Guest1/Doreen, what have you done to Imara? Do we need to sent out a search team as he may have been caught up in the Kawangware saga? In as much as I wanted to stuff a sock in his mouth when he rambled on, his humbleness rubbed off sometimes and I am a sucker for humble pies anytime!
There is scarcity of fools in Kenya this guys should try and take their foolishness somewhere else.
Talk about fighting words. These guys have essentially declared war on Kenya. There is no other country in Africa these kind of bullshit would be allowed to get where it is right now. Raila and his henchmen are literally pushing the country closer and closer to war. They keep pushing and pushing. Please stop this suicidal gamesmanship. Raila's objective is to see Kenyan fight each other. Please Wananchi don't fall for this dangerous game. The guys pushing all these will not suffer at all. The average wananchi will bear the burden while the rich fat cats hide inside their mansions. Think about it. Think very carefully before you go out there to do someone else bad deed. Think about your family, your neighbors. This will devastate the republic. Stop it now.
Maybe in a banana republic far from the equator. Now nasa wants to use the result that SC described as having "irregularities and illegalities" not a fresh one in 90 days as baba said in CNN? This kasumba is to keep their goons high(not followers because there are true nasa followers that are patriots, not goons). Some nasa supporters are trapped in this roller coaster as well, silently skyscreaming from inside about these ever changing orders, declarations, change of strategy etc. They pray that the ride come to a stop while they are intact.
AT THIS POINT SOMEONE HAS TO SAY F***CK YOU NASA!! YOU DIDNT JOIN ELLECTION YOU REJECTED
They swear Raila Odinga as president, and I swear I shall swear in my wife as president of Kenya on the same day, so it will be 3 presidents of Kenya at the same time but 2 will be fake presidents.
Hata bibi ya wetangula can be sworn in as president
Tribalism is the bane of Kenya.We have shamelessly degenerated back to "tribal days.
I dont understand why our leaders as educated as they are cannot come together,and build taifa...,find solutions to what ills us.Or do we want mzungu to show us how?
These diatribe must stop.
Wananchi have serious problems such as poor medical facilities, unemployment,housing,utilities,corruption,immorality. And all these vices/evils know no tribe.Like Obama used to tell republicans, if you have a better idea that can help all americans, bring it.
Jubilee may have its short comings just like any government,but no one can doubt that it has made some progress to kenya.Iam sure Uhuru is not dumb, if Raila has solid productive ideas, Uhuruto would be stupid not to engage them. Wananchi are watching.
wow,just wow, Kenya has not burnt enough for Orengo....
