Dr Augustus Kyalo Muli Party leader of the National Liberal Party and the NLP leadership, Addressing the media in Nairobi
By Aoma Keziah
National Liberal Party (NLP) has raised red flag over recruitment of panel to vet Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) penalist.
The party’s Augustus Muli alleges that Wiper Leader Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka is attempting to rig him out of representing the Political Parties Liaison Committee (PPLC) at the Selection Panel.
Muli voiced his concerns during a press briefing yesterday, accusing Kalonzo of manipulating the selection process to undermine his candidacy.
Addressing the media in Nairobi, Muli said Kalonzo wants Koki Muli to take the position, despite PPLC holding its elections that saw him win with 16 votes against Muli’s 7 votes.
“This is a blatant attempt to rig me out of my rightful position. I will not stand by and let this happen. I will fight to ensure the law is followed,” Muli declared.
He further alleged that Suna East MP Junet Mohammed is colluding with Kalonzo to ensure he is excluded from the selection panel.
He emphasized the importance of a fair and transparent selection process for the IEBC commissioners, noting that any interference could undermine the integrity of the electoral body.
He called on relevant authorities to investigate the matter and ensure that the selection process is conducted in accordance with the law.
The IEBC Selection Panel is a crucial body responsible for the appointment of commissioners who oversee the electoral process in Kenya. The allegations raised by Muli, if substantiated, could have significant implications for the credibility of the electoral body and the upcoming selection process.
As the situation unfolds, all eyes will be on the PPLC and the IEBC Selection Panel to see how these allegations are addressed and whether measures will be taken to uphold the integrity of the selection process.
