Gachagua wants IEBC to commit to conducting the Ol Kalou by-election in a free, fair, and credible manner.
Democracy for Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua has accused the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) of bias and demanded assurances that Thursday's Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election will be conducted in a free, fair and credible manner.
In a letter addressed to IEBC Chairperson Erastus Edung Ethekon, Gachagua claimed the commission had lost public confidence and alleged it had selectively enforced electoral laws in favour of the ruling United Democratic Alliance (UDA).
He cited previous by-elections, including those in Malava, Mbeere North and Narok Town Ward, claiming the commission failed to act against alleged voter bribery, intimidation and violence involving politicians allied to the government.
