Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has asked the government's critics and political opponents to wait for the 2027 elections to challenge the Kenya Kwanza administration, now that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is fully constituted and ready to work. "If you want to challenge us, wait for the elections," said the DP, warning against any attempts to disrupt the country under the guise of political freedoms. "Those looking for shortcuts to power should know this country cannot be allowed to degenerate to where some of our neighbouring countries are.
President Ruto and this administration will not allow the country to descend into chaos and anarchy in the name of liberties and shortcuts by power-hungry politicians who are impatient and cannot wait for elections." Kindiki, who spoke during the Economic Empowerment for Women forum at Kipkeikei in Cherang'any constituency, Trans Nzoia County, welcomed the dismissal of a court case challenging the appointment of the new IEBC commissioners and called on the team to begin preparations for the 2027 General Election immediately. "The IEBC commissioners should now officially begin preparations for the 2027 elections.
The court case had put us in a difficult situation.
It is important to have a fully-fledged commission in place and ready to conduct all our elections.
