Counsel to Odinga disclosed on Monday that his client filed an online petition at the country’s top court, rejecting the result of the August 9 presidential election.
According to a member of the legal team of Odinga, Daniel Maanzo, “It has already been sent to them and they will see it soon.
“We have hopes that we have made a good case and will win.” he said.
Another counsel to Odinga, Paul Mwangi, who is also representing, had said that a physical copy of the petition would be filed before the Supreme Court’s 2.00pm (1100 GMT) deadline.
Odinga lost the election to Ruto Wlliam.
