Irungu Nyakera, Nairobi patron for the Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP), is advocating for the implementation of a parallel tallying system for the 2027 General Election to safeguard against electoral interference.

• The proposed system would run alongside the official one to verify results during transmission.
• Nyakera also suggested stationing agents at polling centres to oversee the entire process from ballot box arrival to result transmission, referencing the "Ol Kalou style."
• This call comes amid concerns over electoral security, following controversial remarks by UDA Secretary-General Hassan Omar regarding the use of deceased individuals' fingerprints, which he later clarified as a metaphor for voter mobilization.
