IEBC vice chairperson Connie Nkatha Maina and commissioners Margaret Mwachanya and Paul Kurgat said they had left the commission because they have no faith in chairman Wafula Chebukati and his leadership. Mr Chebukati made the decision with the support of commissioners Abdi Guliye and Boya Molu. Ms Nkatha and Dr Kurgat walked out of the meeting in protest while Ms Mwachanya was away. AKOMBE“The removal of a CEO is a weighty matter, and is one that should not have been introduced as a by-the-way,” the commissioners said in reference to the argument that Mr Chebukati had ambushed the other commissioners with the agenda. And commissioners led by Ms Nkatha ganged up against Mr Chebukati and disowned one that the chairman sent Mr Chiloba.
