IEBC Commissioner Francis Wanderi resigns

08, Dec 2022 / 1 min read / By Livenow Africa

IEBC Commissioner Francis Wanderi is the latest of the Cherera four to resign from the electoral body.

He becomes the third of the four Commissioner who disputed the August 9 presidential results announced by chairman Wafula Chebukati.

"This decision, while extremely difficult and agonizing for myself and my family, has been necessitated by undue and unwarranted public lynching based on falsified information tainting my reputation and integrity," Wanderi said.

He however, insisted that he is innocent, and has diligently worked to defend and protect the constitution for the 16 months he has served at the Commission.
