NAIROBI nike air vapormax plus australia , Aug. 10 (Xinhua) -- The EU observer mission in Kenya on Thursday hailed the electoral process in Kenya saying it reaffirmed the country's commitment to strengthen democratic institutions and the rule of law.

Schaake noted the voting exercise was conducted in a peaceful and transparent manner in both the ruling party and opposition strongholds save for some technical hitches.


"Voting and counting was assessed as very well conducted and transparent. There were no signs of centralized or localized manipulation," Schaake told reporters during the release of preliminary statement by foreign election observer missions.
