The former chairman of Kenya’s electoral commission Wafula Chebukati has come out to taunt the opposition over its continued claims of vote rigging in last year’s presidential election, wading into the controversy sparked recently by US Ambassador Meg Whitman’s remarks characterising the polls as the most credible in the country’s history.
Mr Chebukati, a divisive figure in Kenya hailed by President William Ruto as a hero and vilified by the opposition, took to social media on Thursday to state that the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) conducted the election transparently.
