MADRID, 15 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Kenyan vice president, William Ruto, has won the Kenyan elections with 50.4 percent of the vote, according to data announced by the Electoral Commission of the African country.

Ruto is thus imposed by a narrow margin on Raila Odinga, as reported by the president of the Independent Electoral and Border Commission in a press conference broadcast on social networks.

The announcement of the final result of the elections has been delayed several times due to accusations of electoral fraud raised by the Odinga campaign.

More than a thousand people died after the 2007 elections and another hundred in 2017, during the re-election of the outgoing president, Uhuru Kenyatta. Odinga, chosen by Kenyatta for succession, had been leading the polls for days before the elections were held.
