Two ODM MPs want voter listing period extended

“The IEBC timeliness should be reviewed. Nothing is cast on stone,” Anyanga said. Osele said: “The process must be credible at all costs.” According to the IEBC, voter registration ends on February 15. PHOTO: COURTESY

Two ODM MPs now want the Independent, Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to extend the period for voter registration by at least two months.

Kabondo Kasipul MP Silvance Osele and his Nyatike counterpart Omondi Anyanga (pictured) said because enough civic education was not conducted prior to the start of the mass registration drive meaning many people are not aware what is going on.

“The IEBC timeliness should be reviewed. Nothing is cast on stone,” Anyanga said. Osele said: “The process must be credible at all costs.” According to the IEBC, voter registration ends on February 15.
