Raila Odinga claims Venezuelans back in Kenya to tamper with IEBC servers

Former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Committee (IEBC) Chairperson Wafula Chebukati was on Thursday, September 28, expected to appear before the National Dialogue Committee.

ODM leader Raila Odinga has claimed that four Venezuelan nationals accused of infiltrating the IEBC servers during the hotly contested 2022 presidential elections are back in the country.

In a statement on Monday, April 17, Raila’s party ODM said the four including the infamous Jose Camargo secretly jetted back into the country to tamper with the electoral agency’s servers.

“We have information that four Venezuelans led by Jose Carmago are in the country to tamper with IEBC servers,” the party said in a Tweet.

ODM leader Raila Odinga has claimed that four Venezuelan nationals accused of infiltrating the IEBC servers during the hotly contested 2022 presidential elections are back in the country.
ODM leader Raila Odinga unsuccessfully vied for the presidency in the 2022 General Election.

The former Prime Minister claimed they had tracked the Venezuelans to Maasai Mara Lodge, where they were residing as they continued with their operations.

To make their work easier, the veteran politician further alleged that the foreigners met with Communication Authority of Kenya CEO Ezra Chiloba and former IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati.

“We have information that they have met with CA CEO Ezra Chiloba and the former IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati… they are now at Maasai Mara Lodge” read the statement.

Raila made the allegations at a time when he is pushing for the re-opening of the IEBC presidential servers for the 2022 election to ascertain who won the polls.

He argues that data by a whistle-blower shows that the Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition won the race by a whopping 8.1 million votes against the Kenya Kwanza candidate who polled a paltry 5.9 million votes.

This contradicts the results declared by IEBC presidential returning officer Wafula Chebukati.

According to IEBC, William Ruto polled 7.1 million votes against his closest competitor Raila Odinga who garnered 6.9 million votes.

The veteran politician has since vowed to continue with his weekly protests even as his team is set to kick start the dialogue with the government side over the high cost of living as well as the re-opening of IEBC servers.
