Gachagua accuses IEBC of bias ahead of Ol Kalou by-election
In a letter addressed to IEBC Chairperson Erastus Edung Ethekon, Gachagua claimed the commission had lost public confidence and alleged it had selectively enforced electoral laws in favour of the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua has accused the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) of bias and demanded assurances that Thursday's Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election will be conducted in a free, fair and credible manner.
The former Deputy President further alleged that senior government officials, including Cabinet Secretaries, Principal Secretaries and other state officers, had actively campaigned for the UDA candidate in Ol Kalou without attracting sanctions from the electoral commission.
