Former nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba has defended the outcome of Kenya’s 2022 presidential election, stating she witnessed the electoral process and saw no evidence that would overturn William Ruto’s victory. Orwoba, who campaigned for Ruto’s United Democratic Alliance (UDA) ticket, served as an agent during the vote and remained involved through the subsequent legal challenge mounted by the late Raila Odinga and his Azimio la Umoja coalition.

Orwoba’s remarks come amid renewed political debate over the credibility of the 2022 presidential election and competing interpretations of the closely fought contest.
