Omtatah files petition challenging IEBC powers to alter, re-tally presidential election results

Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah has filed a petition challenging the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission's powers to verify, alter, or re-tally presidential election results at the National Tallying Centre. Omtatah says Section 39 of the Elections Act, which introduced national-level verification and tallying, contradicts these constitutional provisions and has created room for confusion, duplication, and possible manipulation. In the petition, the Attorney General has also been faulted for failing to advise the government on the unconstitutionality of these electoral practices. Details in the Scales of Justice Segment.
