The Court of Appeal has ruled that Al Ghurair can go ahead with the printing of presidential ballot papers. The Court also faulted the High Court for failing to consider timelines set under the constitution. Earlier, the court upheld High Court determination that newspaper cuttings are insufficient proof President Uhuru Kenyatta met Al Ghurair officials. The Dubai-based printer and publisher was awarded the contract to print ballot papers for the August 8 general election. The High court stopped the printing of presidential ballot papers following a suit filed by the National Super Alliance.
