By PATRICK LANG'ATMore by this AuthorAt least 30 small political parties on Monday went to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) offices and held a meeting with its commissioners, asking that a March 27 deadline for parties to submit membership list be rescinded. Under the Political Parties Liaison Committee, the representatives accused the IEBC of unilaterally changing critical election timelines that they said were hurting them. REMOVE DEADLINEAt the commission’s office at Anniversary Towers, Nairobi, the liaison committee said the commission should tell them what the March 27 deadline means. We are the political parties and are the only stakeholder that will give you that list. The meeting ended with a promise from the commission to meet them on Friday, and to communicate the outcome of the appeal to allow it to advance its March 27 deadline.
