nairobi. >> it's almost like a mirror. it's a reflection of what happens and how we can see it this time. genie: to talk more about the election in kenya i'm joined by the executive director of internet without orders. he is claiming the electronic voting system is compromised. how credible is his claim? that's a very interesting development is happening here. it's quite unprecedented that a candidate claims there has been hacking during the presidential election.

we are used by the fact that he usually contested election results. whether the claims are credible or not that's what we are yet to see. the electoral commission is yet to bring credible proof that there has not been hacking beyond the communique and the press release that came out yesterday and that will need a lot of transparency from the electorate commission. for the algorithms that are used, the counting of results. in terms of who has access to the system of information. this is something that will be put out during a court case. if that is something he will pursue. that is certainly what many kenyans are asking for now from the opponents. him to seek justice in

court rather than calling for people to demonstrate. legal ways tomore settle the electoral dispute. that's very interesting to observe. why probably explains information society has been so important in kenyan society. in 2007 when there were all of these massacres a group of young people came together and created track the helps massacres and people who needed help. today the same system is used to track election results, fake discourse online. used by citizens. copying thes are same system because the electoral system that has been adopted for the vote is probably inspired also by the fact that this civil society has been so

pushing for transparency. interesting develop and something we have been working on at internet without borders within a coalition which .s called keep it on to make sure that internet would still be accessible. compared to many countries in chosen to which have cut the internet during electoral disputes. it's a landmark decision from the kenyan authorities to refuse to cut the internet. and accept that transparency becomes the norm and let the electoral process follow its course. it's a very interesting development. you were talking about the electronic voting system. the electoral commission has denied there has been hacking. it does seem like a very complicated system. --it does seem like a cost

complicated system. one of the organizations will publish a report on this electoral -- electronic system. important ine very order to shed more light on the transparency processes that were implemented by the authorities in order to safeguard the fairness and transparent vote that many kenyans are asking for today. transition from paper vote to electronic vote is not uncommon on the continent and elsewhere in the vote but it does have a lot of challenges in terms of transparency and that like oursil society or others working in kenya are very important to safeguard this transparency. interesting is there seems to be decoding between his

discourse as a political to be and theolitical elite more informed class which has more access to the internet. it's almost all the population. and these citizens are asking .or facts on what basis are you claiming there has been hacking in the electoral vote system. a very interesting development for the region and the african continent. genie: the onus will be on odinga to come up with proof. do you think that is actually possible to prove if there was manipulation? >> it's possible to prove it. the hacking of the system is possible to be proved. once again it has to be done in notansparent way involving

electorals from the commission but also the judicial authorities and civil society. the burden of proof is on those claiming the hacking. that's why it's important and interesting that many kenyans are calling odinga to go to justice so that a fair and transparent process of investigation can be triggered finally. it's important to hope as well but his supporters will listen to those claims in the hopes of not seeing the horrific violence that kenya saw 10 years ago. thank you for coming in. you are the executive director of internet without borders. thank you. another top story. north korea upping its threats pyongyangted states saying it is finalizing plans to fire rockets close to the u.s.
