Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Kenya Kwanza principal and Bungoma County Senator-elect Moses Wetang\u2019ula has trashed the Azimio la Umoja petition that was presented at the Supreme court by the Azimio legal team saying that it has nothing to be ruled over.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am a senior lawyer I have gone through and reviewed the Azimio petition that is pending before the Supreme Court. It has no agenda and it failed on arrival,\u201d Wetang\u2019ula said.<\/p>\n

Speaking at Kibabii University grounds on Thursday during the swearing ceremony of Bungoma governor Ken Lusaka, Wetang\u2019ula lauded Bungoma voters for choosing the Kenya Kwanza leaders and re-electing Lusaka as the county chief.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to thank you all for your unanimous support towards our Kenya Kwanza candidates including William Ruto, we are very sure and optimistic that the Supreme Court is going to uphold Ruto as the President elect,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that Bungoma is now respected for delivering victory towards Kenya Kwanza Presidential candidate William Ruto and a devastating blow to Raila Odinga.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe people who have made Bungoma appear on the bad list have now left, no ferrying and paying them with government money to go to the funerals to throw stones and heckle people. With the Lusaka administration the country will be streamlined,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

However, Wetang\u2019ula argues that Ruto defeated Raila Odinga fairly and they should stop complicating issues that accept failing and allow President Uhuru Kenyatta hand over power to Ruto.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not even interested in what the Azimio la Umoja supporters are trying to do at the Supreme Court, we are just waiting to swear in Ruto as the next President of the republic,\u201d Wetang\u2019ula added.<\/p>\n

Wetang\u2019ula said that the Kenya Kwanza team trusts in the court process saying that they won\u2019t allow a few people to intimidate the work of the Court.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe trust in our Chief Justice Martha Koome, let\u2019s give her ample time to throw out the petition and give a neutral ruling,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

His sentiments were echoed by Webuye West MP elect Dan Wanyama who said that the Azimio team has no plan for the country.<\/p>\n
