The Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Presidential candidate Raila Odinga has accepted the outcome of the Supreme Court verdict.
In a statement, the Azimio leader said that he is however disagreeing with the unanimous judgement of the seven judges who upheld the win of President-elect Dr William Ruto.
“We have always stood for the rule of law and the constitution. In this regard, we respect the opinion of the court although we vehemently disagree with their decision today,” Mr Odinga said.
This comes after the court dismissed all the petitions seeking to nullify the declaration of Dr Ruto as the 5th President of Kenya by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairperson Wafula Chebukati.
