The IEBC chairman Issack Hassan has hinted commissioners could resign if there is no political goodwill to resolve the electoral agency stalemate. The opposition wants the IEBC disbanded, saying commissioners favour Jubilee. “We have disbanded a commission before - the Electoral Commission of Kenya was disbanded in 2008 and it had been there for 18 years. Hassan said secretariat staff should not be vetted afresh even if commissioners are sacked. He welcomed talks between the Jubilee government and Cord on electoral reforms.
