PRESS RELEASE

Re: PNU-Livondo Electoral Fraud

It has come to our attention that the Government is involved in massive irregularities to rig the coming elections.

A Sunday paper reported that one Stanley Livondo did not have the right documents to qualify as a candidate for the Langata seat on any ticket since his documents were incorrect. The ID number and name were of dubious origin having been issued only in July this year.

It is now established beyond doubt from ECK voters’ database that Livondo's ID is a forged document! The National ID. No. 10694331 which Livindo crookedly presented to ECK belongs to a Ms. Shikuku Naliaka Rhoda who is a voter at Mavusi Primary School polling station in Malava constituency. Her voter’s card is number 155/036/0560838269.

Kenyans must now understand why the law enforcement agencies have not found it prudent to interrogate Livondo over the killing in Hamisi.

These facts reveal that Livondo is an imposter who presented papers to ECK under false pretences.

Further, there is enough proof that the said Livondo is not a registered voter in the Republic of Kenya and should hence be disqualified as a candidate for the Langata seat.

ODM calls on ECK to disqualify the imposter and prosecute him for criminal fraud. The ODM also calls for censure of PNU for facilitating this crime by presenting a dubious candidate to ECK.

ODM is anxious that if the Government can go to such an extent as to facilitate criminal acts by one of its candidates, what more is it ding it its designs to rig the elections?
