Presidential aspirant Ekuru Aukot has come out to criticize the results of the presidential contest released by the IEBC, just days after he conceded defeat to Uhuru Kenyatta.

In a tweet on Tuesday morning, Mr Aukot revealed to have unearthed a worrying trend after performing a personal audit of the results.

“Good morning Kenya! Our auditing of the results transmission is revealing a worrying trend. Something went fundamentally wrong,” said Ekuru Aukot.

The the Third Way Alliance Party flag bearer finished fifth in the presidential election with 27,385 votes.

Kenyans on Twitter expressed mixed reactions on Mr Ekuru’s sudden change of heart.

Let us welcome the prodigal son back to the side of justice with open arms ♡

One wonders why he rushed.. let him share his tally then and state his misgivings.. we will wait

@EAukot please review all raw data (hard papers) to show whether presidential tally matches final digital stream. That's the best approach

Its not raw data but physical signed 34A,34B should tally with soft copy

Infact u shud call @RailaOdinga n ask ua colleaques to join u in calling for an independent Audit. U can even go to court n ask for that.

Was astonished that the winning team was announced before all constituencies had submitted their results.
Walitucheza!!#Justice=Peace!!

But you conceded citing how the elections were free n fair, what might have gone wrong? Ama ile kazi ya jubilee Haiko Tena.

I did respect u Aukot only to realise u were just there to seek job, bure kabisa

— Jaredjeff@yahoo.com (@owinom) August 15, 2017

Then why did you rush into endorsing what you hadn't audited?

— Victor Ochieng (@viktaochi) August 15, 2017

But u threw in the towel much earlier
