The IEBC Selection Panel has been forced to review its timelines after receiving 669 applications for the four vacant slots at the electoral agency. Selection panel chairperson Elizabeth Muli on Monday told the Star they will announce new timelines by the end of the week. “The selection panel reiterates that the timelines it has provided are provisional and ambitious but are also achievable,” Muli said. Just a day to the initial deadline, the panel is still holed up trying to shortlist candidates ahead of interviews. The selection panel is searching for replacements for Roselyn Akombe, Paul Kurgat, Margaret Mwachanya and Connie Maina who resigned after the 2017 General Election.
