BBI secretariat co-chair Junet Mohammed. BBI secretariat co-chair Junet Mohammed Wednesday said they expect the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to be on standby for the planned plebiscite. “If the Court of Appeal clears the Bill, IEBC has to prepare for a referendum. We don’t want to hear stories that they cannot conduct a referendum and a general election,” he said. He argued that the same commission conducted a general election in August 2017 and a repeat presidential election in October.
