The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is standing on one foot after three commissioners resigned in a span of one week while three others are a month shy from the end of their tenure.
IEBC Commissioner Francis Wanderi became the latest to resign on Thursday, whittling down a team that once comprised seven commissioners with Juliana Cherera and Justus Nyang'aya having left office.
The electoral agency is now left with chairperson Wafula Chebukati and commissioners Boya Molu and Abdi Guliye. Irene Masit is on suspension awaiting a tribunal probe into her conduct after the August 9 General Election.
