Huge Blunder Chebukati Did Now Exposed

Raila Odinga, a well-known Kenyan political figure, has thrown down the gauntlet, daring the retired Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairman, Wafula Chebukati, to explain the failure to gazette election results stationed on form 33C.

Odinga called attention to this issue, asserting that there has been a glaring lack of clarity on why these consequences have never been officially disseminated.

During the 9th International Electoral Affairs Symposium & Awards Ceremony in Lisbon, Portugal, Chebukati created a presentation on the “Kenya 2022 Election Success Story.”

Raila Odinga seized the opportunity to challenge the ex-IEBC chairman, expressing concern over the dearth of gazetted outcomes.

In his statements, Raila underscored that Kenyans cannot be subjected to living in a state of misinformation or obscurity heeding election consequences.

The call for a justification shows the significance of clarity and accountability in electoral procedures, assuring that citizens can trust the integrity of the outcomes.

The challenge posed by Raila Odinga puts forward pertinent queries about the publication of election outcomes, an important step in the democratic procedure.

Gazetting outcomes serves not only as a formal record but also as a norm of fostering trust among the electorate. Loss to do so can contribute to skepticism and suspicions about the credibility of the electoral strategy.

As this call for justification reverberates, it will be fascinating to see if Chebukati or other relevant administrations respond to lecture the concerns put forward by Raila Odinga.

The issue adds a layer of complexity to the discourse surrounding electoral practices in Kenya and reinforces the need for transparency and accountability to strengthen democratic institutions.
