IEBC Calls Off Saturday Repeat Election in Four Nyanza Counties

IEBC Calls Off Saturday Repeat Election in Four Nyanza Counties

The Independent electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has called off the repeat presidential election earlier scheduled for Saturday to a later date.

The IEBC on Thursday re-scheduled the election in Kisumu, Homa Bay, Saiya and Migori counties to Saturday for security concerns. Nyanza leaders, including faith leaders, had criticized the Saturday date and called on the IEBC to postpone the election.

IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati said a new date will be announced later.

    CHEBUKATI, YOU SHOULD CALLED OFF THIS SHAM ELECTION ON THE DAY OF THE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF JUSTICE MWILU AND THE KILLING OF HER DRIVER. HAVE YOU, YOURSELF BEEN COMPROMISED?

    Chebukati should call it off to allow Raila to conduct his election there in 90 day in order for him to ascend himself to the throne of “President of United Kingdom of Kisumu (UKK)”. Then Raila can create his own capital city called the “City of Lord of Poverty”. As much as Kenya wants to accommodate everyone, sometimes upuzi becomes overwhelming and it becomes difficult to find a way to deal with it. Anyway, Kenya belongs to all Kenyans and if there is a section of Kenyans who refuse to be Kenyans, they are free to leave and go reside somewhere else. There is a lot of empty land in Africa that deserters can occupy.

    What's there to laugh about Guest1? Seriously you are sadistic & deranged. No one laughs at such kind of events except primitive, half evolved, seriously depraved mammals.

    Good call Chebukati, kama hawataki, hawataki after all they call it sham election . Why bother , the victims will cry foul regardless, .Let them conduct their own in 90 days. You have done your part , now declare the winner and move on. Watu wanambebelezwa kwa nini, kwani ni watoto ugh!

  6. Guest1Oct 27, 2017

    formerlyguest 2. I agree with you 100% on 90 days to an Election.

  7. sawa tuOct 27, 2017

    even if they conduct.....no difference will make,,,,

  8. DoreenOct 27, 2017

    That's the right thing to do.

    This is the most embrassing election ever to happen in Kenya.

    Just a flop.

  9. JustMeOct 27, 2017

    Trying to embarrass your motherland... this is what idiots are made of.

  10. formerlyguest 2Oct 27, 2017

    Lol you need to read Stephen Colberts "Truthiness" because you fit right in , with your anonymous fellow, Iphone aka Guest1 . Denial in psychoanalysis means "whereby seemingly intelligent and sane adults vehemently deny truths despite a body of irrefutable data"

  11. KenyaOct 27, 2017

    Forget about them and move on. Kenya is moving on. The next election will be in 5 yrs.

  12. NdiranguOct 27, 2017

    Forget about the 60% who don’t like the president!

  13. AnonymousOct 27, 2017

    Why call it off. We simply will not show up or did UK insist on knowing how many supporters he has in our régions. Zero and if there are any they are too scared to show up hell even the election officers know what is at stake. How do you confront a dog in its own backyard and expect not to get barked at.Now you know we at NASA do not recognise this sham élections maybe it is news to you

  14. formerlyguest 2Oct 27, 2017

    Literally, the dog barked alright when it was being slaughtered and carcasses hanged on a school . What did the parents and kids think of that kind uncouth unyama behavior !?

  15. MaragAOct 27, 2017

    @fg2. Dog slaughter eyew! Some Savage forms of expressions just show how some minds are debased and lacking in controlled emotion and acceptable grammar needed to communicate their protestation. Yet in them dwells the population with the most PhD's.

    Wouldn't be surprised, the same people that did this will tomorrow be thanking their creator in a nearby SDA Church, for having brought torment to the symbol they want represented by that innocent dog.
