The former Gichugu MP urged Kenyans to guard the process at the Bomas of Kenya tallying centre where the IEBC is conducting the verification and tallying of all the election results from across the country jealously.

“We must jealously guard what is happening at the Bomas. We need to support that price to ensure that it is not infiltrated and not interfered with,” Karua said.

During her speech, Karua acknowledged the votes the coalition received from the Mount Kenya region and said even though they were not as much as expected, they will neutralise their opponents’ bragging effect in the region.

Speaking to leaders from the region, Karua thanked them for their efforts, especially those that were unsuccessful in their bids.

She assured them that none of them will be left behind as she encouraged victors to support every winner who is yet to be declared and issued with their certificates.

Karua hinted they will meet again after their win as they had a lot to do in building the nation.

"Immediately after the win, we shall meet again. We really have a lot of work to do to build one people one nation," Karua said.
