Kibaki must step down
Published by Dan Ajega on Jan 14, 2008
Target: kibaki
Region: Kenya
Background (Preamble):
on the 27th December 2007 the Electrol Commission of Kenya (ECK) organised an election where the country's leaders were to seek fresh mandate from the electrorate.
Kenyans exercised their rights as provided by the constitution for going to vote for the leaders of their choice. The majority spoke by one voice and voted Hon. Raila Odinga as their president for the next five years are witnessed and aired by the media, however the ECK announced that President Kibaki had won contrary to the results aired live.
This triggered protests country wide by the people of Kenya. By announcing such results there was no need of us going to the ballot box to vote for a candidate of our choice then the ECK tempers with the results to force a leader who was not voted for.

Petition:
I call on the UN to persuade Kibaki to step down because the ECK rigged elections in his favour, and organise for fresh presidential elections in Kenya.
