Does my vote count?
It is alleged that Kenya has only had one free and fair general election that was in 2002. Kenyans have been turning out in large numbers early in the morning previously to vote in leaders who they feel will better their lives. All this has been ending in protests, demonstrations and petitions in courts, with a historical nullification of the 2017 presidential election by Chief justice Maraga filed by NASA. This is the moment when whispers of "vifaranga cya kompyuta" were heard.
Earlier on in 2018 there was a piling pressure from the opposition on IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati to resign and the commission to be disbanded having lost trust and feeling they cannot deliver free, fair and credible election come August 2022.
Recently, the sentiments of the Deputy President saying publicly that no one can steal his votes has stirred up mixed reactions. He is also on record for saying that nobody can rig election in Kenya.
Are Kenyans assured of credible elections by IEBC on August 2022?
