“I have received the Election Laws (Amendment) Bills 2017 from Parliament, I am now perusing it, as required by law," he tweeted.
The President’s announcement sparked a debate on social media with some supporting him while others asking why he was perusing the document yet he earlier indicated that he would sign the bill to law upon receiving it.
Others wondered why he was checking the details yet he was allegedly behind the amendments forwarded by Jubilee MPs.

A tweep asked president Kenyatta to consider dialogue with NASA which has emphatically opposed the amanemdnets.
The amendments to the Electoral Laws just days to the fresh election has caused a great rift between Jubilee and NASA leaders.
The Opposition legislators ignored the Parliamentary and Senate session discussing the Bill noting that it was malicious for Jubilee to try and change the Law at a time the country was headed to the ballot.
NASA Principal Raila Odinga sharply condemned the move stating that Jubilee was simply using its numbers to change the rules of the elections.
