IEBC launches credibility defence

Nairobi, Kenya: The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission took the defence of its credibility to a weekly Government media briefing, saying that the fact that 163 out of the 188 election petitions arising from last year’s General Election had been dismissed was proof the polls were free and fair.

The commission further argued that the 25 that were upheld had seen the voters re-elect the same leaders that won the initial elections.
