The controversial Election Laws (Amendment) Bill 2017 will come into force on Friday, with or without President Uhuru Kenyatta's assent, Aden Duale has said.

The National Assembly majority leader this will be the case as 14 days will have lapsed since the legislation was passed in Parliament.

Duale told The Star on Tuesday that Uhuru has the options of returning the Bill to Parliament with a memorandum for changes or signing it before Friday, failure of which it automatically takes effect.


This was Uhuru's plan all along. Very clever I must say. Looks like Jubilee has clever lawyers too after all.

What's the point? On Wednesday the courts will rule that there will be no election. The same courts can also rule that the new election laws are unconstitutional



Point of Information - In the spirit of Wazua, a judge does not rule on matters that have not been brought before him. The rules take effect on 27th, elections are to take place on the 26th.

So If Odunga rules to stop elections on 26th, on the 27th the new laws take effect and it will be a new ball game altogether

I am curious...what law he will use to stop the election? On one hand, the constitution is clear about the fresh election 60 days,...add IEBC is the only body mandated to declare elections ..the original edict was issued by a higher court (so he has no business overturning rulings made above his paygrade) and then there is Mativo with his Orbiter Dicta stuff...you can't make a ruling based on stuff that hasn't happened as regards Chebukati and Akombe's statements,..this isn't the Minority Report,...so,..where is the zero-day exploit going to come from ? Fun times...


He might say that the elections have been stopped pending determination of the case.

Unbelievable stuff...so,...what are we talking here? A new general election, all elective posts? Surely there must be some in Nasa who are definitely not looking forward to such an eventuality having spent millions and won?

I don't think he has the power to nullify the whole election but can stop this one.

Interesting days ahead

He can't stop the election, theres no basis in law to do that. Constitution reigns supreme
