This comes amidst the controversial arrest of three individuals after the discovery of IEBC stickers in the personal luggage of a foreigner. He also sought to clarify why a local businessman had been in contact with the three foreigners and facilitated their travel. Chebukati also praised that the company has supplied 14,100 additional KIEMS kits to the Commission, bringing the total number of kits that are in good working condition to 55,100. “For easy identification of the KIEMS kits, Smartmatic is required to provide stickers to aid in labelling each of the kits for purposes of packaging and dispatch to all polling stations. The deployment of the KIEMS kits is currently underway,” the IEBC chair said.
