The Standard Group Plc is a multi-media organization with investments in media
platforms spanning newspaper print
operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a
leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key influence in matters of national
and international interest.
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.
