The layout of the presidential ballot paper
seems to have been leaked with just 13 days to the poll on August 8- In the
plan, the listing of the presidential candidates have been laid out- National
Super Alliance presidential candidate Raila Odinga is last on the ballot paper
containing eight names Al Ghurair Printing and Publishing LLC, a Dubai based
firm commenced printing of the 120 million presidential ballot papers after the
National Super Alliance lost a court case to have them stopped from printing these
particular ballot papers. This is after NASA had initially claimed victory as
the court ordered Al Ghurair to not print the presidential ballot papers after
claims emerged the firm had close links to State House and the Kenyatta family.
On Thursday, July 20, the opposition alliance was, however, dealt a blow when
the court ruled that Al Ghurair can proceed with printing the ballot papers
after a successful Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission appeal to a
previous ruling.
