President William Ruto has responded to a report released by an individual claiming to be an Independent Electoral Commission (IEBC) whistleblower which claims that the 2022 August polls were rigged in favor of the head of state.

The alleged Whistleblower's report, published by The Star, claimed that Raila Odinga won the elections with a 58% to 42% victory for Ruto, in contrast to the 49%-50% official result respectively.

The whistleblower further claims that there was more rigging at constituency levels as most parliamentary results were also rigged in favor of President Ruto's UDA party.

Charles Hornsby, an occasional contributor to Kenya's politics put the report under scrutiny, claiming that the alleged results were juggled up from the official results and tweaked in favor of Raila.

"Findings from the analysis shows the results are a mix of real results from almost all results for example in Mombasa, Kilifi, Lamu, Garissa, Wajir, Mandera, Embu, Kitui, Machakos, Makueni, Samburu, Turkana, Pokot, Siaya, Kisumu and Homa Bay," Hornsby claimed in his analysis published by The Star.

"Clumsy transpositions which are so obviously false that they lead me to conclude that again we have a fake on our hands. In more than 20 constituencies the whistleblowers reverse the votes for Ruto and Raila in a way which simply makes no sense," he added.

"The other seats were left as the IEBC reported, leaving a bizarre patchwork which makes little sense."

Acting in correspondence with the Hornsby's findings, President Ruto took to social media on Sunday night censuring the alleged whistleblower saying that there is no possibility that Raila trounced Ruto in areas well known to have most Ruto's and his deputy's supporters.

"Wajinga waliisha Kenya. There is simply no possibility that Raila beat Ruto in Uasin Gishu, Nyeri, Tharaka nithi and Meru. Yet that is what the so-called whistleblower claims," he said.

Since the emergence of the whistleblower reports, turbulence has been seen in the political arena with both government and opposition engaging in a wrangle of words.

President Ruto has maintained that nothing will bar him from administering his presidential duties while Raila on the other hand wants the president and his deputy to resign.
