The Standard e-Paper
Kenya’s Boldest Voice
The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
It is not surprising that the move by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to abandon plans for electronic voting in favour of a manual process has sparked debate among Kenyans. Already, opinion is divided on IEBC’s move.
Expectations were high that Kenyans would for the first time use the electronic voting system in the next General Election, the first under the new Constitution promulgated in August 2010. The announcement by the Issack Hassan-led team, therefore, came as an anti-climax.
