Quick question: why can't IEBC just give NASA access to the servers. This will rest the case, unless something fishy happened. Looks like this case is hinged on server access. Also Orengo told IEBC during results transmission that they would accepts results if they were given access to the servers.

Fishing in River Nyando.

The elections results are based on Form 34A and 34B and 34C which are not digital but hard copies written by hand and signed by hand then scanned to the tallying centre.

The challenge is that the petitioner is the one with the burden of proof to prove fraud and present evidence. That makes it hard for the petitioner and it seems the aim of IEBC and UMK team is to proof that is not possible given time.

It like when you notice cash is missing from your Mpesa acct and then demand Safcom to allow you access t0 check their servers and identify when your chums dissipated to to!

You see what the wily foxes of kina Orengo are alleging is that Chebukati & co somehow got rid of the real/original forms 34As AND 34Bs and created a fresh lot in order to rig Uhuru in!

They content that the real/original forms that were sent in real time, contain the real results that are in their favour.
Then kina Chebukati realising that ‘their candidate’ – Uhuru had lost, conspired to manufacture alternative forms which is what they have brought to court. Of course this means that even the hard copy original 34As and 34Bs as held by IEBC are not good enough for the NASA team.

Of course there is still the issue of ‘hacking’ and computer generated vifarangas – blah blah blah. Net effect, everything is just one big mess.

So there was no election, - solution nusu Mkate.

Nusu Mkate is a pipe dream for NASA if that is their intent with the case or rejection of results. I support Ngalaka opinion that Supreme Court should independently look at "access to the servers " and rest this case after which NASA can go yap and cry all they want since it would have been proved that all they want was nusu mkate by all means.

Is it just my bias or do the judges listen more keenly to some lawyers than others? I could sense that when Ngatia and Muite were speaking they listened more intently, at one point Muite was going on and on even after the clock showed that his time was up, they did not interrupt him. I noticed a sense of impatience on the judges part when Orengo was speaking and also with young lawyers like Kanjama and Omollo.

Orengos 10 minutes ran to over 30 minutes and all along he was saying nothing. Ngatia spent less than 5 minutes and delivered the killer punch

Grand Mulla is useless when it comes to law he only shines in the media. That other idiot, Kanjama thought that just because he is a tv celeb, the CJ would be intimidated.
I think Orengo, Ngatia and Muite were very respected and respectable and of course the AG lighting up the room.

If you have a dispute with a bank about some transactions, do you ask for access to servers?

This is just a stupid political request.

If the whole discussion is about servers ODM/CORD/NASA has lost the case.... even if they get access to the servers/database there is nothing there.
