Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta harshly criticized the Supreme Court on Thursday, a day after judges presented a detailed explanation of their decision to cancel his win in the Aug. 8 presidential election over procedural irregularities and to order a re-run.

“A coup in Kenya has just been done by the four people in the Supreme Court,” Kenyatta said in a live, televised speech delivered mostly in the local Kiswahili language. “(The court is saying) ‘numbers don’t matter, it is processes that matter’.”
