[Edward Kiplimo,Standard]Advocate Florence Jaoko has said there is a need for clear standards of procedure in announcing poll results. Jaoko was put to ask over the media's role in making the announcements, especially when they differ from what the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission officials say. Jaoko, a former Kenya National Commission on Human Rights chairperson, faced the IEBC selection panel that questioned her on the transmission of results after people have voted. The seven-member Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Selection Panel chaired by Dr Elizabeth Muli is sitting at the Kenyatta International Convention Centre (KICC). Others are Prof Joseph Naituli and Dr Rose Musyoka, who sat at the National Cohesion and Integration Commission and the National Land Commission respectively.
