Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission chairman Wafula Chebukati was Wednesday, August 31, roundly condemned by petitioners challenging the presidential election results, who called for his sacking.

Senior Counsel Pheroze Nowrojee representing Azimio la Umoja leaders Raila Odinga and Martha Karua argued that Mr Chebukati "took the law unto himself" and has become an arrogant leader who cannot be trusted with the election.
