NAIROBI: The umbrella body of churches yesterday said the national electoral commissioners had lost credibility to supervise the next polls and demanded that they leave office.

At a press conference, the National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) demanded electoral reforms, a new Supreme Court and public testing of all electronic equipment to be used in the General Election scheduled for August next year.
