Speaking in Kitui yesterday during the burial of Kitui West MP Francis Nyenze, the NASA leader laughed off assertions by Attorney General Githu Muigai that he would be charged with treason, whose penalty is death, should he be sworn in as Head of State.

Raila said those who rigged the presidential poll have no business issuing threats or intimidating statements.

“…tulisema sisi tulishinda na sisi tutaapishwa…tumeambiwa ati ooh treason treason, ati hiyo ni kifo. Mimi nataka kujibu Githu Muigai hapa na boss yake, ikiwa kama kifo ndiyo lazima itafanyika ndiyo tusiwe na wizi wa kura tena, tutaapishwa tukufe…

…if death is the price that we must pay so that Kenyans get electoral justice, so that there is no rigging in future we are ready to pay that price. We will be sworn in, wafanye vile wanataka kufanya….”Raila stated.

For the third time now, the former Prime Minister promised he would be sworn in as the People’s President.

He said although the Electoral Commission (IEBC) was in contempt of the Supreme Court ruling by refusing to open its servers, NASA had gained access and established that he beat President Uhuru Kenyatta in the August 8 Election.

Raila said the election results were the basis of the unstoppable move to swear him in.

NASA organizing committee have said plans are still underway to swear in Mr Odinga as Kenya’s president.
