The country is facing an unprecedented situation of an electoral commission without a team as the terms of the chairperson and two commissioners end, while four others are facing a tribunal.
Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Vice Chairperson Juliana Cherera and commissioner Justus Nyang'aya, who are part of a quartet facing the tribunal, resigned last week.
Cherera resigned on Monday while Nyang'aya quit last Friday just hours after President William Ruto suspended them and named a tribunal to investigate them following four petitions seeking their ouster.
