We know what the legal requirement for an effective act of the assumption of the Office of the President requires: If a citizen undertakes a process that has none of those underpinnings it will have no legal effect.
Whoever is talking of treason may just be looking to make a mountain out of a molehill, but there is certainly going to be a political statement being made.
Any call to characterise the second swearing-in as treason is nothing more than a political statement.

The MPs Nelson Koech (Belgut), Hillary Koskei (Kipkelion East), William Cheptumo (Baringo North), William Chepkut (Ainabkoi), Julius Melly (Tinderet) and Oscar Sudi (Kapseret) dismissed the plan, saying it has no basis in law.
"This is a clear indication of desperation by the opposition that has found it difficult to accept the will of the people. It is high time NASA came out and told their supporters the truth that Jubilee won the election," Koech said.
