Three of four former commissioners of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) have told the National Dialogue Committee that they were forced to resign.

Juliana Cherera, Francis Wanderi, and Justus Nyang'aya said that they were forced to leave office after President William Ruto appointed a tribunal led by Court of Appeal Judge Aggrey Muchelule to probe their conduct in the 2022 polls, by opting not to appear before it.
