STATEMENT BY SAFARICOM ON
WITHDRAWAL OF LEGAL PETITION BY
CORD COALITION:
Safaricom welcomes the formal withdrawal of
the legal Petition filed against it at the High
Court of Kenya by Mr. Eliud Owalo a
representative of the CORD Coalition.
Pursuant to the withdrawal of the Petition by
the CORD representative, Safaricom has
undertaken to play its part in explaining and
or providing to the IEBC for onward
presentation to the Judiciary all pertinent
information.
This information is limited to what can be
legally disclosed, what is technically available
and specifically only that which directly
emanates from its contractual scope with the
IEBC.
The above notwithstanding, we stand by our
earlier public statement of 6th March 2013
and we maintain that our contractual
mandate to the IEBC was fully and properly
executed.
We would also like to assure the public and
all interested parties in this matter that we
are fully cognizant of the importance of this
process and the need for transparency by all
players involved and this is the basis upon
which we have extended our full cooperation
to the courts.
