President Uhuru Kenyatta on Monday posed a series of questions to Kenyans after the Supreme Court upheld William Ruto's win as the president-elect.

Uhuru asked Kenyans to scrutinize the institutions involved in the election process by testing their truth as presented by the Constitution, as is their duty. 

"Because democracy is a work in progress, I urge the country to respect the institutions that midwife our new leaders. And in doing so I also urge citizens to constantly put them under scrutiny for this is the civic duty of every single Kenyan," he said. 

Uhuru challenged Kenyans to ask themselves whether the truth has been upheld from one election to another.

"Has there been a consistent pattern that is acceptable to our democratic ethos?" he asked.

"We must ask ourselves, is it about numbers or is it about the process? Which of these two is it?"

The outgoing president also urged Kenyans to cross-question whether the institutions can rule one way in one election and another way in another election without scrutiny.

He urged the citizens to be vigilant and hold all institutions into account.

"I do invite you Kenyans to keep vigil and indeed to hold all institutions to account."

Uhuru further challenged the public to question whether the truth given by the institutions has correspondence. By Sharon Mwende, The Star
