Officials of the (EC) who served in various capacities during the December 2024 general election are criticizing the Commission for failing to fulfill the financial agreement made with them.
Five months after the election, the contract workers report that the government, through the EC, has not paid the allowances owed to them.
The officials raising these concerns include Presiding Officers, Verification Officers, Reference Officers, and Ballot Issuers-comprising teachers, nurses, university graduates, and students.
In a press interaction, the workers expressed frustration that despite the EC's promise of prompt payment, it has failed to honor the terms regarding their service allowances.
