It is a reprieve fro Nyaribari Chache MP Richard Tong'i after the petition challenging his victory was adjourned.
According to the three lawyers challenging Tong'i, the IEBC officers failed to supply them with the KIEMs kit and SIM cards used in the August 8 polls.
Petitioners Chris Bichage, Zaheer Jhanda, and James Kenani said the kits and cards will help them prove their case.
“Your honor, we are not ready to proceed today because the IEBC and the returning officer have failed to supply us with the documents as you directed,” said Oguttu who is one of the petitioners-lawyers.
IEBC has been told to ensure they supply the documents before the November 30 hearing.
