IEBC split casts shadow on commissioner's tenure

Whichever way the Supreme Court rules on the presidential election petition, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is staring at a grim future.

The fight pitting three commissioners (chairperson Wafula Chebukati, Abdi Guliye and Boya Molu) against four (vice-chairperson Juliana Cherera, Francis Wanderi, Irene Masit and Justus Nyang'aya) could just be the blow that takes the commission down.

The two factions have accused each other of committing electoral malpractices in the recently concluded General Election, casting doubt on the credibility of the process.
