So far, the deputy President, William Ruto is narrowly leading ahead of ex-Prime Minister Raila Odinga in the latest count.
The Kenyan law stipulates that the election result must be announced latest August 16.
On Sunday, both Mr. Odinga and Mr. Ruto urged anxious Kenyans to be patient as they wait for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to determine which of them would be the country’s fifth president.
There have also been calls for peace from several leaders and bodies including the Catholic church which asked for “patience and civility” and urged the main candidates to show “restraint and statesmanship”.
At the moment, Ruto leads the official tally at 51% against Mr. Odinga’s 48%, according to local media.
There are still 39 constituencies to be counted before the final winner is announced.
