The journey towards the reconstitution of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is gathering steam with a Bill seeking to have the Public Service Commission and Political Parties Liaison Committee represented in the selection panel.

The tenure of IEBC Chairperson Wafula Chebukati, Commissioners Boya Molu and Abdi Guliye ends in January next year while Vice Chairperson Juliana Cherera, Commissioners Irine Masit, Francis Wanderi and Justus Nyangaya are facing four petitions seeking to remove them from office.
