UHURU SHOULD STEP DOWN, CORD EFFECT COMING SOON. [FULL STORY]

Cord leaders Thursday challenged
President Uhuru Kenyatta to
resign over rising insecurity a
day after he told the public to
play a bigger role in fighting
crime.
During yesterday’s prayer service
for Homa Bay Senator Otieno
Kajwang’ in Kisumu, the Cord
politicians led by Mr Raila
Odinga said the Jubileee
Coalition had failed to provide
security leading to death of
innocent Kenyans.
The cited the recent Mandera
attacks in which 28 people were
shot dead by terrorists as well as
earlier killings in Mpeketoni,
Kapedo and the Westgate Mall
as, all of which have claimed
over 170 lives.
Speaking at the Jomo Kenyatta
Sports Grounds, Siaya Senator
James Orengo said Mr Kajwang’s
death should be a wake up call
to the President to match his
words on improving security
with action.
“Kajwang’s last message while
debating in the Senate was
firmly telling the Jubilee
government to put their house in
order to avert the security
menace,” Mr Orengo told the
large gathering that had turned
up to pay their last respects to
the senator who died of a heart
attack on Tuesday.
Machakos Senator Johnson
Muthama asked the Jubilee
government to surrender power
to Cord to avert an escalation of
insecurity.
“Jubilee has failed the country
and President Uhuru Kenyatta
must surrender or else they will
be responsible for the innocent
blood,” he said.
Suba MP John Mbadi accused the
Jubilee government of
hoodwinking Kenyans on security
matters.
“The President should stop
playing public relations at the
expense of the security of
Kenyans. He should realise that
people are dying,” Mr Mbadi
said.
His Suna counterpart Junet
Mohamed called for the
resignation of President Kenyatta
saying his leadership was an
example of a failed government.
“It is time President Kenyatta
realised that the lives of over 40
million Kenyans are at stake.
Time is ripe that Kenyans send
the Jubilee government packing,”
he said.
A visibly emotional Mr Odinga,
who arrived at the venue in a
helicopter, led the roaring crowd
in chanting “Jowi, Jowi (hero)” to
symbolise Kajwang’s bravery.
SENSITIVE ISSUES
He thanked the government for
the assistance towards the
senator’s burial and said ODM
was ready to help on sensitive
issues facing the country like
insecurity. Kajwang’s body was
flown to Kisumu in a police
aircraft.
Mr Odinga also used the occasion
to warn ODM rebels to either toe
the party line or resign.
“We had warned them before
that they either shape up or ship
out. The choice is now theirs,” he
said.
In his eulogy, Mr Odinga said:
“Mr Kajwang’s death has dealt
ODM and Nyanza region a big
blow, something that we are yet
to comprehend.”
He said Mr Kajwang’ never shied
away from enforcing discipline
against errant party members.
Before the ODM leader arrived at
the venue, there had been a
security scare at the main dais
when hundreds of youths surged
forward as the hearse carrying
Kajwang’s body arrived. This
compelled the bodyguards of
various dignitaries on the dais to
take strategic positions.

POWERFUL WITCHDOCTOR SAYS OTIENO KAJWANG' WILL RESURRECT SOON!! RAILA TO DIE

A 'powerfuL' witchdoctor
from Homa Bay County
has shocked residents
of Mbita Constituency by
claiming that the late
Homa Bay Senator, Otieno Kajwang,
who
passed away on
Tuesday night as a
result of heart attack, is
not really dead. The witchdoctor, who
is
said to have come out of
a forest in Mbita,
chanting and ululating in
a strange language that
nobody understood, said the gods
from Luo
Nyanza had not granted
Kajwang’s wish to die
and therefore he will
live again. Addressing a huge
crowd in the remote
Mbita Village, the
witchdoctor, who also
happens to come from
the same Omolo clan as Raila
Odinga, told Luos
not to despair about the
alleged death of Otieno
Kajwang because all
was well - he will live
again. He noted that the gods
showed him a vision in
which Otieno Kajwang
was addressing a huge
political rally
accompanied by Raila Odinga in
which, he sang
his famous mapambano
hit song two weeks
from now and he can
only do so either
physically or in spirit. He told the
doctors to
hold on to their findings
about the cause of
Kajwang’s alleged death
a little longer because a
big surprise that will shock the
entire
country is coming.

HOW JUBILEE RIGGED ELECTIONS, U

The Jubilee Coalition colluded with
corrupt election officials to print
extra ballot papers that were used
to rig the 2013 presidential
election, the Coalition for Reforms
and Democracy has claimed.
Cord leader Raila Odinga on
Tuesday said the extra ballot
papers were printed by Smith &
Ouzman, a British firm, and
smuggled into Kenya days before
the March 2013 elections.
“Extra ballot papers were printed
and transported to Kenya through
Geneva, Switzerland, and even the
NIS was aware of this. I can
produce a person who was in
Geneva and saw all this,” Mr
Odinga said at a news conference
in Nairobi.
The smuggled ballot papers were
taken to “Jubilee areas”, according
to the Cord leader, who was
accompanied by co-principal
Kalonzo Musyoka and Moses
Wetang’ula.
“They were the ones which some
of our MPs found being counted at
Kenyatta University.”
Mr Odinga made the claims in the
wake of reports from a UK court
that Kenyan election officials
received millions of shillings in
bribes from the British company
over a two-year period.
UK prosecutors have filed in court
papers accusing senior election
officials of corruption, including
Independent Electoral and
Boundaries Commission (IEBC)
chairman Ahmed Issack Hassan,
former chief executive James
Oswago, former official Davis
Chirchir (Energy Cabinet
Secretary) and former deputy chief
executive of the IEBC’s
predecessor, the Interim
Independent Electoral Commission,
Mrs Gladys Shollei.
The allegations, made in the
prosecution of Smith & Ouzman
Ltd and four of its directors for
corruption at the Southwark
Crown court relate to the Interim
Independent Electoral Commission
and are alleged to have occured
between 2009 and 2010.
DEMANDED RESIGNATION
Mr Odinga demanded the
immediate resignation, arrest and
prosecution of Mr Hassan, Mr
Chirchir, Mrs Shollei and current
and former IIEC and IEBC officials
linked to the fraud allegations.
He said Cord’s 900-page evidence
that was rejected by the Supreme
Court, where he had challenged
the 2013 presidential election
results, contained evidence
showing that extra ballot papers
were printed and smuggled into
the country to help Jubilee steal
the election.
“Of concern beyond the corruption
allegations is that Smith &
Ouzman, apart from giving bribes
to the Kenyan election officials,
also printed additional ballot
papers for Jubilee, which were
used to rig the 2013 presidential
elections,” Mr Odinga said.
Mrs Shollei, who was sacked as
Judiciary registrar on claims of
corruption, had presided over the
scrutiny of the IEBC tallying of
votes on behalf of the Supreme
Court in the 2013 election petition,
he said.
“Before joining the Judiciary, she
was an official at IEBC and is
implicated in the corruption,” Mr
Odinga said.
He accused Mr Chirchir of
representing the Jubilee Coalition
in the scrutiny of votes at the
Supreme Court despite his alleged
role in the corrupt dealings at the
IIEC.
“What is being adduced in court in
London points to a serous, baffling
and shameful integrity and
credibility gap on the part of these
present and former officers and an
indictment of the Jubilee regime.
“It cannot be that Jubilee does not
know what these officers did.”
