The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission on Wednesday came under fire after publishing an erroneous tweet. The polls agency, while announcing the launch of signatures backing the proposed amendments to the Constitution, used the phrase ‘burning bridges’. “Happening now: The launch of the Burning Bridges Initiative Supporters Verification Exercise at the Bomas of Kenya,” the tweet read. The tweet, which was part of a thread, was hurriedly deleted, but not without the attention of Twitter users who took screenshots of the same. The error elicited reactions from among users, some expressing their ire at the commission and accusing it of showing signs of not backing the BBI process.
