Bermuda Triangle - "IEBC Bomas Triangle - 34As Coming In And Then Disappears!"
God’s will, passion for justice drives me - Justice Maraga
The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a loosely-defined region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean, where a number of aircraft and ships are said to have disappeared under mysterious circumstancesThe National Super Alliance (NASA) head Raila Odinga, said on the last day of the hearing of his petition on Tuesday, September August 29, that an audit ordered by the Supreme Court exposed nearly five million irregular votes.
“Our case has been proved that forgery, alternation of documents fakery and deception have been used in various ways, including one in which the server was used,” lead counsel for the Nasa legal team, James Orengo, told the court.
“These affected nearly five million votes,” the lawyer who is also Siaya Senator noted, referring to what he elaborated as discrepancies in 90 form 34Bs from the constituencies.
Orengo was speaking on two audit reports by the registrar and court-appointed IT experts, in which he said the scrutiny proved their claim that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) fraudulently procured statutory forms to justify President Uhuru Kenyatta’s victory.
Orengo then went on to claim that the Wafula Chebukati-led electoral body was in contempt of court as it didn’t fully cooperate as had been ordered by the judges.
The claims were however challenged by Senior counsels Paul Muite and Fred Ngatia representing IEBC and President Uhuru Kenyatta respectively, who asked the court to ignore the findings and uphold Kenyatta’s election.

AUDIT OF THE IEBC Servers
An audit of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission servers discovered some discrepancies despite the limited access given to independent ICT experts:-
- A report filed at the Supreme Court by Prof Elijah Omwenga, Prof Jose Sevilla and Janet Kadenyi showed that the commission could not deliver information on internal firewall configuration to its servers as ordered by the court.
- The experts noted that the commission could not deliver certified copies of certificates of penetration tests conducted on the IEBC Election Technology System prior to and during the election. "We discovered that the documents supplied were not certified and their submission did not conform to Election (Technology) Regulation 10 of 2017,” said the experts.
- The audit team further noted that although the commission provided a list of all procured KIEMS kits, the information on whether they were used or not was not comprehensive.
- On the issue of log in trail of users and equipment into the IEBC system servers and KIEMS database management system, NASA disputed a soft copy of logs provided and wanted access to the servers. “The commission should have demonstrated that the logs came from them by allowing all parties to have a read-only access and to copy the logs,” noted the experts.
- The experts noted similar issues with the access to IEBC public portal from August 5, saying that the commission allowed live access but did not give the parties access to the database logs. The commission, however, complied with the order requiring disclosure of the number of servers in their exclusive possession, but declined to disclose the configuration of the internal and external firewall. The experts noted in the report that the refusal was not justified, given that the request by NASA for configuration of the internal firewall was genuine.
