The Electoral Body in Kenya on Monday has declared Vice President William Ruto the winner of the country’s close-fought presidential election, despite several commissioners rejecting the results.
The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission Chairman Wafula Chebukati said Ruto had won almost 7.18 million votes (50.49 percent) against 6.94 million (48.85 percent) for his rival Raila Odinga in the August 9 vote.
