Tuesday is the last day for the winner of the Presidential election to be announced but the IEBC said that they will not use all seven days under the law. Given that all the 290 constituencies have been tallied, with 32 yet to be announced, the process is as good as done.

One of the Presidential candidates David Mwaure has already conceded defeat. Surprisingly, after conceding defeat, he endorsed William Ruto saying that having been at Bomas of Kenya, he has realized that he is the winner of the presidential elections.
