Blow to Raila as court orders recruitment of IEBC commissioners

The High Court has dealt Azimio leader Raila Odinga a major blow by ordering immediate recruitment of commissioners to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).

While dismissing by-partisan talks between Azimio and Kenya Kwanza on expansion of the IEBC selection panel and reconstitution of the commission for lack of constitutional and legal backing, Justice Thande Mugure ruled that the strict timelines to recruit the commissioners to conduct by-elections and boundaries review cannot wait anymore for politicians to agree.
