The IEBC has so far registered 825,145 voters countrywide during the first week of the month long registration exercise.
According to the figures released on Tuesday, the commission indicates that President Uhuru Kenyatta's political strongholds lead in the registration, with regions belonging to the opposition seemingly doing badly.
According to the statistics, Central Kenya and the Rift Valley regions have recorded good percentages in registration of new voters, as leaders crisscross the country to ask their supporters to register.
The over 800,000 voters registered in the first week falls short of the 1.4 million targeted by the IEBC, which hopes to have 6 million new voters by the end of the exercise.
According to the figures, Central Kenya (Nyandarua, Nyeri, Kiambu, Kirinyaga and Muranga counties) have registered a record 139,876 voters in the first seven days, 87 per cent of the IEBC target.
Deputy President William Ruto’s home turf in Rift Valley has done well too, registering 169,371 voters since the drive began on Monday last week.
However, the opposition’s home turfs seem to be experiencing voter apathy, despite campaigns by the leaders to sinsitise their supporters to register.
Nyanza region, which is the home turf of Cord leader Raila Odinga, (Kisumu, Homa Bay, Siaya, Migori, Kisii and Nyamira counties) only registered 95,995 voters in the first week, which translates to 48 per cent only.
The exercise is on its second week, as the IEBC hopes to update its voter register with new voters.
