David Mwaure Concedes Defeat On The Presidential Race

As a result, the presidential candidate supported William Ruto, asserting that he has maintained a lead in the vote totals and that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) should declare him the winner.

“I wish to concede defeat in the presidential elections if 2022 whose verification is ongoing at Bomas. This I am doing after seeing what my performance has been and after discussions with my team in Bomas,” read part of the statement.

The Agano party leader further thanked his supporters for backing his bid during the polls further urging the IEBC to remain steadfast to ensure that the ongoing exercise is verifiable and seamless.

“I thank my family, secretariat, the campaign team and all those who voted and prayed for us,” said Mwaure.

“I wish to call on IEBC to be firm, steadfast and resolute on its task and mandate and announce the leading winner of the presidential election.”

After Mwaure withdrew, there are now three people vying for the position of president of the nation.

They are George Wajackoyah of the Roots Party, William Ruto of Kenya Kwanza, and Raila Odinga of Azimio la Umoja.
