Kenya opposition hails ‘historic’ decision overturning poll


Kenya’ s opposition leader Raila Odinga on Friday hailed as historic a court decision nullifying an election won by President Uhuru Kenyatta and calling for a re - run.

“ This is a historic day for the people of Kenya and by extension for the people of the continent of Africa, ” said Odinga , adding it was the first time a presidential result had been overturned in Africa.

“ We are ready for elections but we don ’ t have confidence” in the electoral commission ( IEBC ) , he added.

“ Those commissioners must go , ” said Odinga . “ Most of them belong in jail .”
