The Office of the Ombudsman is seeking clarification regarding the late inclusion of six names in the shortlist for positions at the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
In an inquiry letter dated April 16, the Commission on Administrative Justice (CAJ) is requesting that the IEBC selection panel clarify the late inclusion of these names to address public concerns about the transparency of the process for selecting new commissioners and the chairperson.
Charles Dulo, the CAJ chairman, is urging Dr.
Nelson Makanda, the chair of the IEBC selection panel, to address these concerns regarding the additional candidates for commissioner positions in order to restore public confidence in the selection process.
