United Democratic Alliance(UDA)'s presidential running mate Rigathi Gachagua has been quiet for four days about the ongoing tally of the presidential votes by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) at Bomas in Nairobi.

But, on Saturday, August 13, through his social media pages broke his silence on the matter and asked his supporters to be at ease assuring them that all was well.

"All is well, relax good people. Don't be drawn into sideshows. We have no time for their usual drama. Our business right now is verification of forms 34A and 34B at the national tallying centre," he tweeted.

He claimed that the process was smooth but being slowed down by their opponents suggesting that the long-awaited results might be announced by tomorrow.

"The process is rather slow as Azimio agents keep delaying the exercise but our agents are patient, disciplined and respectful to the IEBC officials. If the pace is maintained and they are restrained from causing further unnecessary delays the winner of the presidential vote should be announced before the end of tomorrow, Sunday."

Adding;

"You are encouraged to visit the IEBC portal and with a simple calculator, add the numbers to know the winner such that the announcement by the National Returning officer will be a mere formality. Mbele iko sawa."
