Members of the IEBC selection panel during a press conference at County Hall. Addressing the media this afternoon at County Hall, Nairobi, the Selection Panel Chairperson, Dr. Elizabeth Muli, said the team will proceed to collate the applications received. After the publication of the long list, the Selection Panel will move to short-list the applicants and thereafter publish the names of the shortlisted candidates. The Selection Panel hopes to forward the names of successful candidates to President Uhuru Kenyatta on or about June 9, 2021. IEBC is currently operating with three commissioners – Chairman Wafula Chebukati and Commissioners Boya Molu and Abdi Guliye – after exit of four commissioners after the 2017 general elections.
