    NASA know it has no case. That’s why they do not want to go to court. Let NASA know we as citizens of Kenya reject street justice. It will only cause pain and agony to many. The world community is hailing the election results as most free and fair and I cannot understand why NASA sees it with a different eye,

    Mr. President Can you please stop giving Mr. Raila the stage by acknowledging or even making him remotely think he has anything to present to court. He has lost in so many occasions and his argument is always the same that he has been rigged out. Asiye kubali kushindwa si mshindani. You said you will retire if Mr.Sonko won; it’s time you do all of us a favor and honor those words, unless again it’s another kitendawili according to you to your supporters. Mr. Raila if you want to be remembered for anything, this is the time you throw in the white flag and accept that Kenya will move on with you not ever becoming it’s president and stop embarrassing yourself. Retire from Politics.
