A number of Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission secretariats may lose their jobs soon following implications by opposition leader Raila Odinga.
Supreme Court of Kenya nullified reelection of President Uhuru Kenyatta on grounds that the elections did not meet constitutional requirements and other election laws.
With IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati absolving himself from the latest fiasco, members of the secretariat may find themselves on the receiving end.
During his televised speech, Odinga particularly finger pointed Chief executive officer Ezra Chiloba and demanded that he resigns before Kenya goes for another presidential elections.
Also in Odinga’s blacklist include Deputy CEO Betty Nyabuto, Director Voter registration and electoral operations Immaculate Kassait and Alext Kioni, who replaced slain ICT Director Chris Msando.
In his address barely a day after Supreme Court ruling, defiant Chebukati blamed members of secretariat and invited DPP to investigate and prosecute officials who might have breached the law.
Lawyers James Orengo and Ekuro Aokot demanded that IEBC be disbanded and United Nations to oversee presidential elections in two months time.
