Roots Party leader George Wajackoyah and Agano Party leader David Mwaure have congratulated President-elect William Ruto after the Supreme Court upheld his win in the August 9 General Election.
Speaking to the media outside the Supreme Court moments after the apex court dismissed Azimio La Umoja One Kenya presidential candidate Raila Odinga’s petition, Wajackoyah said he would hold Dr. Ruto’s government into account as a member of the opposition.
“We are going to hold the government of William Ruto accountable… we have fought a war and the Supreme Court has decided so now what we need to do is live with harmony because life has to continue,” the Roots Party leader said.
On his part Agano patron Mwaure applauded Ruto for the win, adding that he had received an earlier confirmation from God and that the court’s decision was also directed by God.
“I wish to very heartily congratulate His Excellency the President-Elect Dr. William Samoei Ruto on confirmation of his win by the Superior Court,” he said in a statement.
“We also filed an application to join the Petition in the Court of Appeal but when we were not allowed, God, himself decided to direct the Judges! All glory and honour to God.” He added.
Other leaders who have congratulated the Presiden-Elect Ruto for his win include Zambia’s head of state President Hakainde Hichilema and COTU boss Francis Atwoli.
The President- Elect William Ruto now awaits his swearing in on Tuesday next week.
