NAIROBI, KENYA: Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission Chairman Wafula Chebukati has praised Roselyn Akombe, the commissioner who resigned early Wednesday.

Akombe was the head of operations committee at the Electoral body, a duty which Chebukati says she discharged diligently. According to Chebukati, Akombe discharged the duty with no purposes but for the love of her country and urge to see democracy thrive in Kenya.
