'Suppose we have a congruence $f, g : E \rightrightarrows X$. This induces a monomorphism $(f, g) : E \hookrightarrow X \times X$, which is thus an injective group homomorphism (see below). The image is also clearly a reflexive and symmetric relation. Furthermore, since the forgetful functor to $\mathbf{Set}$ preserves pullbacks, and transitivity gives a morphism $E \times_{p_2, X, p_1} E \to E$ in $\mathbf{FinGrp}$, it also gives a transitivity morphism in $\mathbf{Set}$, showing that the image is transitive.<br>

Therefore, the image of $E \hookrightarrow X \times X$ induces a congruence in $\mathbf{Grp}$. We already know that $\mathbf{Grp}$ has effective congruences since it is multi-algebraic. Using <a href="/lemma/effective-congruence-quotients">this result</a>, we see that $E$ is the kernel pair of $X \to (X/E)_{\mathbf{Grp}}$ in $\mathbf{Grp}$.

On the other hand, if $E$ were the cokernel pair of $h : H \to \mathbb{Z}$, that would mean that for $x, y : \mathbb{Z} \to G$, $x \equiv y \pmod{2G}$ if and only if $x \circ h = y \circ h$. In particular, from the case $G := \mathbb{Z}$, $x := 2 \operatorname{id}$, $y := 0$, we would have $2h = 0$.
