Azimio la Umoja coalition leader Raila Odinga has claimed that he won the August presidential election.
Raila has alleges that he got over 60 per cent of the valid votes cast in the presidential election, but was robbed by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission and the Supreme Court.
Raila made this claim on Thursday night when he addressed members of his campaign team during a thanksgiving ceremony that was held in Nairobi.
“We won the elections hands down. When history is written the facts will come out. They did not even get 50 per cent,” said Raila.
“As a member of the Azimio coalition, you should walk tall and feel proud because you are a member of a big movement that won the 2022 election. We know what happened. Kenyans will get to know why we have an illegitimate regime in power. We will continue to illegitimise this regime because they usurped power.”

In the official valid votes, Dr. William Ruto won the August General Elections after garnering 50.59 per cent. This was equivalent to 7,176,141 votes.
Raila on the other hand managed to get 6,942,930 votes representing 48.85 per cent.
Among those present at the thanksgiving ceremony were Wiper Party leader Kalonzo Musyoka and Narc Kenya leader Martha Karua.
