The petition, which had been filed alongside that of the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy, sought to nullify the 2013 election, which the two petitioners claimed to have been altered by the first respondent (IEBC, Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission) under the leadership of the second respondent (Isaack Hassan) to the advantage of the third and fourth respondents that is the president and deputy president of Kenya, respectively. The petition was heard by a panel of six Supreme Court judges, headed by Willy Mutunga.
