Homa Bay Governor-elect Gladys Wanga has asked Azimio la Umoja One Kenya coalition supporters to pray for Raila Odinga.
Taking to her official Facebook account, Wanga expressed dissatisfaction with the recently released presidential results.
“I am aware that many of you are currently hurting and struggling with disappointment and lack of clarity over what happened yesterday. As a strong supporter of Baba, I share your disappointment. I am hurt at a very personal level,” the statement reads.
She also took issue with the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairman Wafula Chebukati for lack of transparency in how the commission handled the whole election process.
“What transpired yesterday is monumental electoral fraud that has also been likened to a civilian coup. Our very able legal team has assured us that the irregularities, the election malpractices and the lack of transparency with which Chairman Wafula Chebukati conducted the commission’s business are so glaring that yesterday’s declaration cannot stand,” she wrote.

Wanga further reiterated that the Azimio brigade would seek legal measures to ensure the right winner is declared.
“The exercise was deeply flawed, as confirmed by four commissioners who constitute the majority of the IEBC commission. So this matter is not over. The last word about it has not been spoken. The legal team has assembled and will be doing everything possible to ensure the right winner is declared,” the statement added.
“In the meantime, let’s stand firmly behind Baba and pray for him,”
