        Of course he would. If he's done it before, why not sing🗣 again? Thing is, his song no longer tops the charts. Nobody's listening👂🏿

        If the opposition was leading, the results would've been (very) accurate.

        I'd be surprised if he came out and said we accept the result. He's been disputing them before elections. Opposition needs new leader

        If #Kenya had a decent mobile phone system, much of this could be ignored. Our #tech can give them that. http://qwickfone.com pic.twitter.com/n8yQMT129N

        Double check your source on that. 🇰🇪 is not behind mobile-wise like you think. In fact, looks like you can't point #Kenya on the World map.
