Registrar of Political Parties Ann Nderitu addresses Secretary Generals of various political parties in Nakuru on July 29, 2021 [Harun Wathari, Standard}A digital platform will be set up to allow Kenyans who were erroneously registered to political parties recently to resign from them and or register with other preferred outfits. Registrar of Political Parties Anne Nderitu and Data Protection Commissioner Immaculate Kassait yesterday held a meeting in Nakuru with political parties secretary generals on the matter. In June, Kenyans expressed their fury with the state agencies handling their data after they found out that they had been registered in political parties they didn't wish to be associated with. In collaboration with the registrar and political parties we are working on a system to manage data and ensure its protection,” said Kassait. With the country heading to a general election in a year’s time, the commissioner said that they are committed to ensure compliance on the part of political parties whose registers are susceptible.
