There is panic in Kenya Kwanza after the Kirinyaga governor Anne Waiguru bitterly dismissed the online reports that she had won the Kirinyaga seat.
Anne Waiguru while making the revelation said that her opponent on Wednesday tried to sneak in some two ballot papers, an indication that voting was still ongoing and that there was no victory just yet.
“Rigging in broad day light – Two ballot boxes with governors’ ballots enter Kirinyaga through the back door in broad daylight! They MUST be removed and counting must stop! Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission(IEBC),” Wrote Waiguru.
This comes just a day after the Kenya Kwanza fraternity led by their leaders such as the Kiharu member of parliament Ndindi Nyoro shared information that the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party had won the Kirinyaga seat and many more in Mt. Kenya.
Waiguru is facing Kirinyaga woman representative Wangui Ngirici in the tightly contested race and various opinion polls have indicated that the race is too close to call.
On their side, the Azimio supporters felt relieved by the governor’s claim as it gave them hope that UDA had not won the seat amongst many others in Mt. Kenya as they claimed earlier. This is what they said:
“UDA Facebook Returning officers told us Gov. Ann Waiguru has won and even Congratulated her, sai ndio ule anasaga meno na Kulia STOP THE COUNT kwa facebook page yake ati anaibiwa. Siasa Ni Ngumu!”
“I hope this is the front door or the room itself otherwise I advised recently to channel such serious allegations to the right authority and using a serious channel, you have the RO and the PO right there in Kirinyaga yet you choose to yap on social media.”
“Wait! I thought I saw your name in some list as having been elected?”
“This is incitement and may cause unrest. There are better ways to address such sensitive matters for the sake of the peace of the nation. Let everyone remain calm.”
“I thought it was done and dusted and UDA returning officer had sworn you in? ?”
“Thanks Anne Waiguru for exposing the false winning narratives being peddled in Mt. kenya by the UDA and the Kenya Kwanza team. At east your point confirms that you have not won like were told yesterday. Thanks for exposing these losers.”
“I told you guys these guys have not won anything. Just see how Waiguru whom they claimed to have won is now crying that deep state is planning to rig him. Aki my Kenya Kwanza brothers stop relying on Itumbi for election information he will break your hearts mkiskia Baba na mama wanatangazwa.”
“UDA started spreading propaganda that has now turned against them! Last night we were told Anne Waiguru won the Kirinyaga County Governor seat, now she wants counting of votes to stop! Why is Anne Waiguru fearing Purity Ngirici?”
