🚨 IEBC RESPONDS TO CLAIMS OF VOTES BEING ‘SMUGGLED’ FROM UGANDA

The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has dismissed allegations of an elaborate scheme to illegally register voters, transfer voters and register foreign nationals ahead of Kenya’s 2027 General Election.

The claims followed a teaser for an upcoming investigative report alleging that voter-registration materials were being moved across the Kenya–Uganda border.

IEBC says the allegations remain unsubstantiated, stating that it has not received credible evidence to support claims of electoral malpractice. The Commission also says no KIEMS kit has been reported missing, intercepted or unlawfully moved to Uganda or any other foreign destination.

The Commission says voter registration is being conducted in designated and gazetted centres across all 290 constituencies, with administrative and technological safeguards in place.
