Former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chairman Wafula Chebukati was battling a recurring illness, with his family and friends keeping a close watch on his condition at his home in Karen, Nairobi. "After treatment in Germany, he recovered and was able to enjoy walks around here.
Unfortunately, the illness returned, and he had to go back to the hospital," a close relative shared, their voice filled with concern.
Chebukati had been flown to Germany after the 2022 Election, where he spent a prolonged period receiving treatment.
He returned home several months ago after recovering, but soon after, the illness returned, leading to a brief hospitalization before he was taken back home for further monitoring. "He was doing well, but was under treatment and close observation," the relative said.
