An Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) lawyer has warned that holding the 2027 elections without delimiting boundaries would be illegal.
Appearing before the Supreme Court, IEBC officials argued that failure to conduct the boundary review could put the legitimacy of the polls at risk.
Through its legal team, the Commission insists that the exercise must be completed by July 2027, at least 12 months before the General Election. "If IEBC is not allowed to review the boundaries, there will be a ripple effect.
The election requires delimitation of the boundaries." IEBC's lawyer Edwin Mukele said.
