Kenya’s cohesion commission has asked Kenyans to maintain peace during and after the announcement of the presidential results.
The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) has asked all Kenyans to “accept the results and allow any issues that may arise be addressed by our courts”.
“This all important announcement will shape the future of our country but it is not a do or die situation by any stretch of the imagination. Kenya will move on successfully no matter who is president therefore our people need not worry,” says NCIC chairman Samuel Kobia.
The NCIC was set up in the wake of the violence that followed the 2007 election when at least 1,200 people were killed and 600,000 fled their homes after claims of a stolen election.
