Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta has won a second term in office, in an election disputed by the main opposition Nasa. The IEBC (electoral commission) chairman Wafula Chebukati announced the presidential elections Friday night.
"I wish to declare Uhuru Kenyatta president-elect and William Ruto as deputy president-elect," he announced at the national tallying centre in Nairobi. President Kenyatta garnered 8.2 million votes, representing 54.2 per cent of valid votes cast beating his rival Nasa flagbearer Raila Odinga who had 6.8 million votes.
