The reconstitution of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) could once again be derailed after another case was filed in court.
This time, the appointment of Prof Adams Oloo to the IEBC Selection Panel has been questioned.
Former Law Society of Kenya Chief Executive, Apollo Mboya, argues that Oloo was ineligible to sit on the panel since he serves as President William Ruto's advisor. "The second respondent's (Oloo) position in the panel presents a brazen conflict of interest and is an affront to the principle of separation of powers and representation that was intended by the IEBC Act Cap 7C Laws of Kenya," says Mboya.
The lawyer, who has also sued the Parliamentary Service Commission and the Attorney General, wants the court to halt the panel's activities until the case is resolved.
