Jubilee’s President Uhuru Kenyatta is heading for a landslide victory after his arch-rival Raila Odinga pulled out of the race, even as IEBC continues to tally votes from across the country after a day marked by poor voter turnout.

National Super Alliance (NASA) presidential candidate Raila Odinga urged his opposition supporters to boycott the fresh poll, even as his Jubilee counterpart hit the ground running with a series of country-wide campaigns calling upon his supporters to turn-out in large numbers and vote for him.
