Lawyer James Orengo has alleged that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) denied Azimio La Umoja agents access to its servers as ordered by the Supreme Court.
Orengo told the court that the officials at the IEBC headquarters at the Anniversary Tower denied them entry on grounds that they needed authorisation.
“My lady Chief Justice and members of the court, we are also having difficulties with the orders relating to the inspection of the servers. We have been given restricted access only to the results transmission system. It is established that IEBC has eight servers yet we have access to one only.
“We have written to the registrar of the court in the hope that this court solves this matter as quickly as possible,” Orengo lamented.
However, in response, Justice Isaac Leanaola said that the exercise was still going on when the supreme court took a lunch break. However, he pledged to investigate further.
“We are following up on the question but as far as we know, the exercise is continuing and should there be an issue later in the day or tomorrow morning, we shall receive a report.
“By the time we got out of here, the exercise had commenced and there was an agreement on how to access the servers that were given and the issue of cloning is being addressed. Let’s leave it for now. We are aware of that,” Justice Lenaola stated.
