Edwin Were, 46, was driven out of a hospital ward in an ambulance to vote at Kisumu Central Primary School only to find his name missing from the voters register.

IEBC officials turned him away after his voter identification done inside the ambulance failed to identify him as a voter. He was among 50 patients who had sought to be allowed to vote.
