Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga's Chief Agent, Saitabao Kanchory has resurfaced for the first time since the Supreme Court verdict that threw away his boss' presidential petition and upheld President William Ruto's victory.
In a statement on Thursday, November 17, Saitabao believed that there were jaw-dropping instances that cost Raila what he viewed as a sure victory over Ruto in the hotly-contested elections on Tuesday, August 9.
He termed betrayal and deception as among the key factors that ruined Raila's march to State House, consequently disappointing millions of Azimio la Umoja supporters who had vouched for him to succeed former President Uhuru Kenyatta.

Saitabao promised to lay bare in an expose the series of yet-to-be-confirmed costly blunders that stopped Raila from clinching the top seat in the country at the fifth attempt.
"Coming Soon: Why Baba is not The 5th". All you need to know about the betrayal, deception and intrigues that destroyed the hopes of a Nation and broke the hearts of millions.
"Only the truth shall set us free. Traitors will be exposed!!! Stay tuned," he tweeted.
Saitabao last hit the headlines when he, on Thursday, August 25, released a secret recording of the behind-the-scenes conversation with Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairperson, Wafula Chebukati before the presidential results were announced on Monday, August 15 at the Bomas of Kenya.
Before the big announcement, he had requested Chebukati to verify the results before the announcement with the Azimio coalition, but his requests were allegedly turned down.
He was to sign to confirm that the final results were valid before the final announcement but he had not done so at the time. Chebukati was heard suggesting that Saitabao gets a copy of the results for him to sign.
"I will sign if you give me the chance to verify. If you give me the chance to verify and we agree that these are the results, I will sign," he was heard saying.
Saitabao was with Narok Senator, Ledama Olekina and Nairobi Woman Representative, Esther Passaris.
Ledama could then be heard accusing Chebukati of trying to instigate chaos across the country, saying "I will listen to you but you need to listen to me as a leader as well, as a Kenyan and a voter," to Chebukati who was seemingly irked by his initial sentiments.
Saitabao then requested a copy of the results to sign as they are, given that he was the only one asking for it.
He then moved to compel the IEBC chair to address his demand for a retallying of the votes as well as scrutiny, to which Chebukati argued that Constitutional timelines stipulate that the presidential results must be released seven days after the voting process took place.
To be specific, the deadline for the results to be announced was on Tuesday, August 16 and a retallying of a total of over 14 million votes would have seen the process completed past the stipulated deadline, thus igniting a constitutional crisis.
After Chebukati defended by stating that the commission could not start a re-tally having done an exhaustive vote tallying since the closure of the voting exercise, Saitabao resigned by telling him that "so your conscience is right on what you're doing. The meeting is over, but it's just the beginning."
