The Independent Elections and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) through its Kirinyaga Central County Office conducted Kerugoya Municipality school elections.
The elections provided the Commission an opportunity to expose the pupils to the electoral process and educate them on the importance of democracy, good governance and the role the Commission plays in Kenyan elections.
Preparations for the elections begun with a sit-down with all stakeholders invested in the elections: School Administration, Teachers, Candidates and Students (voters).
The sit-down provided a window for IEBC officials to conduct voter education sessions with students, teachers and the school administration.
