As Kenyans grapple with the murky issues surrounding the reconstitution of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) has raised a fresh list of demands while criticising the government for the ongoing delay.
In a statement delivered by LSK President Faith Odhiambo, the delay in the reconstitution of IEBC has continued to put Kenya at risk of breach of crucial electoral timeliness. ''Kenya is in and at the risk of further breach of crucial constitutional electoral timelines on account of the lack of an IEBC,'' Odhiambo stated. ''Our political context is at the brink of implosion, and we must unite efforts towards getting the Commission set up and ready to go.
The future, peace, and democratic state of our country depend on it,'' The IEBC team at the Bomas of Kenya during the tallying of the 2022 general elections.
Photo VOA LSK now wants the immediate reconstitution of IEBC, saying that the delay has hampered the process of continued voter registration in the country.
