Allies of longtime opposition leader Raila Odinga cited alleged irregularities in the process by election officials.

Nearly a week after 22.1 million Kenyans were called to the polls, the country is still waiting to know the name of Uhuru Kenyatta's successor, who, after serving two terms since 2013, is not eligible to run for a third. If neither of the two front-runners receives more than 50 percent of the vote, Kenya will have its first presidential run-off. By early afternoon, Odinga had 52.54 percent of the vote (2,288,315 votes), compared with 46.76 percent (2,036,795 votes) for Ruto in 29.92 percent of polling stations, according to official results released from Nairobi, where the Independent Electoral Commission (IEBC) is collecting, counting and verifying results.

“We might just have been overrating ourselves previously because the figures were inflated. The issues need to be identified and proper measures taken to make sure that there is more interest in young people to participate in the election process,” he added. That means I don’t have a choice and therefore I will stay away.” Probably there are concerns among the youth that participating in elections is not worthwhile. “You expect in every election to have a better voter turnout. “Stakeholders consulted by the mission attributed the low youth participation to the general conception that the votes do not count in elections, lack of trust and confidence in the political system, youth unemployment and poverty,” he added.

Five days later, tensions rise as Kenyan presidential election results ... (Daily Maverick)

Five days after Kenya's presidential election, no official result was yet in sight though preliminary calculations pointed to a major upset Ruto victory.

So it was decided that this time the paper forms certifying the results from each of the 46,229 polling stations and the 291 constituencies had to be physically transported to the national counting centre in Nairobi to be reconciled with the electronic results. It commended Kenyans “for their efforts toward holding successful elections and deepening democratic rule, which is a prerequisite for sustainable socioeconomic development in the country.” Nonetheless, they largely said the polls had been conducted peacefully and did not report seeing any evidence of rigging or errors large enough to influence the outcome. “If it is this close, it has two implications; 1) it makes the job of IEBC Kenya much harder as even fairly small issues can impact the outcome. Uhuru’s father Jomo Kenyatta was independent Kenya’s first president and Odinga’s father Oginga Odinga was his vice-president — before they fell out in 1966, soon after independence in 1963. Odinga’s supporters feel even more certain they’ve been cheated because almost all polls before last Tuesday’s election had put Odinga ahead, possibly with enough votes to avoid a run-off. The margin between Ruto and Odinga’s votes could be about 250,000. The BBC also estimated that Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza coalition was slightly ahead in the Senate election with 33 seats to the 32 of Odinga’s Azimio La Umoja coalition. Tensions were rising in Keyna between supporters of the two candidates as the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) painstakingly checked and double-checked results to avoid posting incorrect figures. The general concern is that his supporters might take to the streets to protest, possibly provoking violence. To avoid a run-off election, a presidential candidate must win more than half the votes cast — 50% plus one vote, plus at least 25% of the vote in at least 24 of the 47 constituencies. If neither Ruto nor Odinga reaches those totals, the run-off election would likely be held in September.
