United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Chairperson Johnstone Muthama has responded to Murang'a Woman Representative Sabina Chege's utterances during an Azimio La Umoja rally in Migori. 

Responding to Deputy President William Ruto's claims that there was a plan to rig him in the upcoming general election, Sabina said that Ruto knew how Jubilee won the election while dismissing his claims. 

"Nimesikia wengine wakisema tuliwaibia kura, kuna kaukwelu kidogo. Lakini mjue kama tulijua kuiba, si hata hii tutafanya 'nini'? Wanafikiria hao ndio wajanja? She posed. 

However, in a quick rejoinder, Muthama stated that the remarks made by the Woman Rep could only mean that Azimio La Umoja does not advocate for free and fair elections and they are planning to rig the August 9 polls. 

"Free and Fair elections are the cornerstone of any democratic political system

"The utterances made by Sabina Chege show that Azimio La Umoja has no support on the ground and the only option they have is rigging elections," Muthama said.

DP Ruto had claimed that the ''deep state'' had hatched a plan to rig the presidential vote noting that he would scuttle such plans adding that nobody would steal his votes. 

“Does it look like my votes can be stolen? I am the deputy president of Kenya. Is there a deep state or a system that exists without my knowledge?

"I will surprise them. The electorate will decide and one the votes have been cast, that is final. No one will interfere with my results,” DP Ruto stated. 

The utterances by Sabina was followed by the claims from DP Ruto.
