Speaking during the hearing of a petition filed by ex-Kisumu
Governor Jack Ranguma against Professor Anyang Nyongo, Information Technology
expertMr Levy Otieno Oduor revealed that he accessed the IEBC servers during
the General election where he noticed that some files had been deleted.
When I accessed the server I realised that there was the
deletion of files which were form 37A which gave room for fresh ones to be
uploaded, Mr Otieno was quoted by the Nation
Responding to questions on who benefitted from the hacking,
the witness stated that Prof Nyongo was the major beneficiary of the
malpractice.
According to Mr Otieno, the person he found performing the
alleged fraud used the logins
I dont know the relationship between the person who logged
in and the respondent, but what I know is there was a Nicholas Migot in Prof
Nyongos campaigns, Otieno stated.The IT expert further noted that he had been
given the passwords for the server by a contact at the polls agency but did not
mention any names.
I was not alone while accessing the server. I had a contact
who was helping me. I used FileZilla to access logs, he revealed.
The presiding Judge David Majanja asked the witness to write
down in confidence the name of his contact at the IEBC, which he gave to the
court.
Prof Nyongos lawyer James Orengo gave Mr Otieno a hard time
when he asked him to provide evidence of hacking into the system which Mr
Otieno was unable to provide.
The beauty of science is that it leaves a trail of the
transaction. What footprint did you leave when you accessed the server? Orengo
asked the witness who remained silent.
Mr Otieno was testifying in support of the petition filed by
former Governor Ranguma against the IEBC and Nyongo.
Ranguma wants the court to overturn Nyongos victory.
