In some parts of Nyanza, however, the preparations by the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) were disrupted with, among other things, protests and electoral officers failing to show up. SIAYASiaya County Returning Officer Ruth Kulundu raised concern after presiding officers and their deputies failed to report for duty on Wednesday. She also raised concern that they did not have vehicles to transport the materials to polling stations. By midday, IEBC officials from the region were still consulting security officers at an undisclosed location. On the other hand, Kisumu East constituency had not received most of its election materials by late afternoon.
