Murang’a Woman Representative, Sabina Chege has been summoned by Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commissions over claims that Raila Odinga will be rigged to State House.
In a press statement on Friday, February 11, 2022, IEBC ordered Chege to appear before the committee in charge of Electoral code of conduct enforcement.
“Whereas the Commission is seized of a report and material against yourself in regards to violation of clause 6(a) and 6(i) of the Electoral Code of Conduct,
“You are hereby required to attend the offices at the Commission at Anniversary Towers 6th floor on the 15th day of February 2022 at 9.00 o’clock,” IEBC said.
Sabina Chege stirred controversy with her utterances made at a public rally in Isibuye in Vihiga County on February 10, 2022, during the Azimio la Umoja Movement mobilization rally.
While urging residents to register in large numbers as voters so that they can vote in ODM leader Raila Odinga to be the fifth President, Chege revealed how Jubilee might have rigged the ODM leader out in the 2017 presidential elections.
“Kule central nimeskia hapawengine wakisema hapa tuliwaibia, kuna kaukweli kidogo. Lakini mjue kama tulijua kuiba si ata hii tutafanya nini…alafu…alafu”. ( In Central, I have heard here some people saying that we stole from them. There is some truth in that. They should know that if we knew how to steal then, why not in this? Will we not do something… then… then…then)
The utterance by the Murang’a Woman rep has been condemned by Kenya Kwanza alliance leaders.
While on a campaign tour of Nakuru County, Deputy President William Ruto disputed the claims that President Uhuru and him stole the 2017 elections.
“There is one woman (Sabina Chege) from Azimio who said that Uhuru and I stole votes in 2017. I want to ask you the people of Nakuru, were your votes stolen? Did you not vote for us? We did not steal anyone’s votes.
“The people of Azimio should stop threatening people with accusations of stealing votes. I was in charge of the election and Uhuru did not steal anyone’s votes,” Ruto said.
