ODM leader Raila Odinga has confessed to having sought the services of hackers to know the truth about the August 9 polls. 

In an interview with Ramogi TV on Monday, Raila reiterated that the August 9, polls were rigged.

Raila said he had kept mum about the polls to gather data and facts and that is why he sought the services of IT gurus to "ethically hack the IEBC servers" to know the truth. 

 “I was hesitant to talk about the results and elections. My intention was to gather facts first before commenting on them. I had to look for ethical hackers to know the truth,” Raila said.

Raila divulged that his hackers had arrived in the country with the machines but owing to the nature of their work, the State tracked them for almost a month forcing them to discharge their mandate outside the country.

“We got them from abroad and they arrived in the country with their machines. At some point they were forced to go to Athi River, some in Kajiado and even Kiambu because they were being tracked for about a month,” he said.

According to Raila, he got to know the truth while in South Africa where he was on a working trip as an AU envoy for Infrastructure.

He maintains that he won the August 9, polls fair and square.
