TJ Kajwang’ ‘Opens Up’ On Receiving A Call From Trump To Swear Him In

Date:

Ruaraka lawmaker TJ Kajwang’, always smiling face, has always kept his colleagues in a jovial mood with his straight jokes.

He often cracks them up at the height of serious business.  He is never shy of expressing his opinion, no matter how controversial.

During a recent oversight team meeting, his colleagues burst into in laughter when he said he had received a call from US President Donald Trump to “swear” him in for a second term, according to the Star.

Kajwang’ was dragged to court over the oath by Nasa leader Raila Odinga as the People’s President on January 30, 2018. His friends in Bunge call him the ‘People’s Chief Justice’.

Mr Kajwang’ and another lawyer, Miguna Miguna, were at the centre of events at Uhuru Park that culminated in the “swearing-in” of Mr Odinga as the ‘people’s president’.

During the ceremony, Mr Kajwang’ donned a lawyers’ robe and wig and received a thunderous welcome by Nasa supporters.

As Mr Odinga took the “oath”, Mr Kajwang’ stood right behind him, although his role remained unclear.

He is now jokingly ready to extend the same services to Donald Trump.

Trump has declined to concede, instead lodging unsupported charges of election fraud that have gained little traction.

Judges so far have tossed out lawsuits in Michigan and Georgia brought by Trump’s campaign, and legal experts say the litigation has little chance of changing the outcome of the November 3 election.

Nearly 80 percent of Americans, including half of Republicans, say Biden is the rightful winner, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Tuesday.

Yet, two other new polls reveal a large majority of Republicans believe the integrity of the election is in question.

Biden secured the presidency on Saturday after television networks concluded he had won Pennsylvania and Nevada, giving him 279 Electoral College votes, more than the 270 needed to take the White House.

The outcome is still undecided in several states with Trump holding a lead in North Carolina and Biden ahead in Georgia and Arizona. Recounts are expected in several states, though they are unlikely to change the outcome.

Nationwide, Biden is leading Trump by 3.2 percentage points or nearly five million votes as final tabulations trickle in.

In order to remain in office, Trump would need to win all three undecided states, plus overturn the results in one or more states already in Biden’s column.
