The country is set to hold a mini-General Election once the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is fully constituted due to several pending by-elections.
Residents of Baringo County, Banisa, Magarini, Ugunja and Malava constituencies, along with several wards across the country, are eager to elect new representatives as soon as the commission commences its work.
The by-elections have been necessitated by Cabinet appointments, deaths, and the nullification of elections for some Members of Parliament and Members of County Assemblies.
Residents of Banisa Constituency in Mandera County have been without representation for two years following the death of their MP, Kullow Hassan, in a March 2023 Nairobi road accident.
