[Photo|Courtesy]The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Ezra Chiloba has pledged to stay put, following resignation calls.Chiloba has been making headlines in Opposition rallies, with opposition leaders asking him to resign or be sacked, and prosecuted for overseeing a bungled August election, after the Supreme Court nullified the presidential election on September 1.However, Chiloba warned that he would not resign from the electoral body, despite accusations that he sides with the ruling government, where the president (Uhuru Kenyatta), is a candidate in the October fresh presidential election.He said the Supreme Court asked IEBC to conduct another presidential election, and did not ask anyone to resign, or rather, it did not point out individuals who bungled the election."The court was very clear. It directed IEBC to conduct another presidential election. It did not point an individual or said that I should resign. IEBC is ready to conduct another election and we all need each other, to ensure this is done," said Chiloba, during a television interview on one of the local stations, Wednesday.Opposition has warned that it would not go to another presidential election, with Chiloba and other ten officers at IEBC.They said the team bungled the election, and lack credibility.
