The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) have been on the news so much lately since the the three commissioners Margaret Mwachanya, Paul Kurgat and Vice Chair Consolata Nkatha made the decision to resign in April and last week the returned to their office but were not allowed in.They made it clear that they were resigning because of poor leadership skills from their chairman, Wafula Chebukati.
“For too long and way too many times, the commission chair has failed to be the steady and stable hand that steers the ship in difficult times, and gives directions when needed,” they said. Noew many kenyans have lost faith in the board and now they want it to be disbanded.
Here are some of their reactions:
