Four IEBC commissioners disown presidential results

Four IEBC commissioners disown the presidential results of the general election citing the opaqueness of the process.

Four IEBC commissioners have disputed the presidential elections set to be announced by the IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati.

The four led by commissioner Juliana Cherera said they cannot take ownership of the results because of the opaque nature they have been handled. 

Juliana Cherera together with Francis Wanderi, Justus Nyangaya, and Irene Masit, refused to take ownership and sign the results owing to the opaque nature of the final process of verification of the results.

“We have done the 2022 general election in the most efficient manner. We have ensured that all the challenges have been contained,” commissioner Juliana Cherera said during a hastily arranged press briefing at Serena Hotel.

At Bomas, IEBC Wafula Chebukati’s efforts to announce the final presidential elections results was marred by violence after a section of leaders stormed the podium.

The IEBC chairperson was whisked away faster by law enforcement officers at Bomas.

This come after Azimio la Umoja Chief Agent Saitabao Kanchori claimed that the IEBC system had been compromised.

Speaking at Bomas of Kenya, Kanchori added that Azimio’s claims were backed by intelligence information that unknown persons had infiltrated the system. 

“We have intelligence reports that the IEBC system was penetrated and hacked and that some of the IEBC officials had actually committed intellectual offences and some of them ought to be arrested,” he stated.

“We were not in any position to ask our party leader to come before we actually verify results, which we have not done,” Kanchory added.
