This one is a bit fudgy: neither side can prove the other right/wrong. They should lave him alone. It makes for bad press once you start arresting people especially when you are focussing on the losing side.

Its not whether he is right or not.Its what he symbolizes which at the very least is frustration and resistance.

(Maybe the system time was not properly set?...>>>

I agree with @KulaRaha easier to leave him alone.
Well said @Ms Mkenya he is incorrigible. Even more surprising his frequent tribal/abusive comments go unnoticed. Of late his crusade seems to be attracting some followers who, though rarely, seem to be using him as a whistle-blower.

The response by government may appear to lend his allegations some grain of truth. Notice he seemed to report of the meeting LIVE, almost as if an observer was sending him information.

I wonder why there is a lot of hullabaloo about this issue. We need to respect both sides.

1. Alai has right to say whatever he wants-Freedom of expression. However, that freedom should not be left unchecked. Your freedom ends where the other person's freedom starts.

2. The other party(In this case I think Kimemia) feels offended. Thus, point number one comes to play. Alai's freedom was used to offend another party.

What to do now?

Look for arbitration to decide. And that is where the courts come in. We cant compare with Nyayo era, where the police was judges by themselves...Right now, an Independent Judiciary is available to listen to both parties. Whoever wins, we leave it to the court. I would have been angry had Alai been put to detention, Nyayo chamber or such other crude treatments...My burukenge cents

I believe he meant - THE KENYA INFORMATION AND
COMMUNICATIONS ACT

29. A person who by means of a licensed telecommunication
system—

(a) sends a message or other matter that is grossly offensive or
of an indecent, obscene or menacing character; or

(b) sends a message that he knows to be false for the purpose of causing annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety to another person

commits an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding fifty thousand shillings, or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three months, or to both.

Personally, I had enough of him when he tweeted:

Arggh! My sincere apologies for misleading the court

@harrydre Section 29(b) of The Kenya Information and
Communications ACT Chapter 411a not of The Constitution of Kenya.

Wasn't IEBC running a MySQL dB?

for results transmission - YES! hii mambo ya kencall is a figment of people's imagination. can't they ask themselves the following questions.
1. The data in the kencall 'results' server was such that we saw all candidates had their own column in addition to the constituency name and code - who builds tables in that manner? a column for dida? if that was what was happen the IEBC would require 1882 tables for all races they were targeting.
2. The data was aggregated at a constituency level - IEBC was collecting data at the polling station level i.e. the target was 33,400 * 6.
3. The claim was that 21 clerks were keying in data - could they do data entry for the above i.e. 33,400 * 6 entries?
4. finally, the data that alai claims to have shown us was complete data - it is a well documented fact that RTS did not receive data from all the polling stations but rather abiut 45% of all polling stations returned presidential results. so what is his story? RTS worked 100% or failed as they aptly kept on reminding us on TV??

These cops have nothing better to do...there's peace everywhere
