Homa Bay Town MP Peter Kaluma has cautioned against the latest court decision to stop vetting of commissioners to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
The MP, on Tuesday, May 20, said the decision has the potential to delay the reconstitution of the IEBC, which could affect the commission's preparations ahead of the 2027 Elections.
In a statement, Kaluma said the court orders could bring friction between different levels of government. "The orders issued suspending the vetting of IEBC commissioners run contrary to the public interest in a properly constituted electoral commission to undertake the pending by-elections and adequately prepare for the 2027 General Election," Kaluma said.
