The IEBC needs to expunge the dead voters from the register and validate the inaccuracies KPMG has highlighted in the report and present the electorate with a clean voters roll. Many past attempts by the electoral management body to clean up the register have failed to end the suspicion. One of the most common complaints has been that details of dead voters are used to sway the results. With the loopholes now laid bare, it behoves the institutions charged with ensuring the credibility of the voters’ register to seal them and ensure the country heads to the General Election with a clean and verifiable register. It is, of course, true there will be details of dead voters in any voters roll in the world due to natural attrition.
