Time to reflect, vote (again) and build a peaceful nation in Kenya
The Kenyan Supreme Court's ruling to annul the results of last month’s presidential election is a rare example of institutional independence in Kenya’s super-charged political environment. This historic court ruling is the first time an African opposition party has successfully challenged the outcome of an election through the courts. Saferworld appeals to communities, politicians, the police, the media and all relevant institutions to work for a peaceful election and use the re-run as an opportunity to address the issues that most concern Kenyans, including corruption, good governance and marginalisation. Our statement urges all to work together for a peaceful and cohesive Kenya.
