Kuria To Face IEBC Over Election Rigging

Written By John Mutiso  📝

Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria is expected to appear before the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission over his claims that the 2017 election was rigged in favor of President Uhuru Kenyatta.

Kuria is expected to appear before the Electoral Code of Conduct Enforcement Committee this morning 10:00 am at the Commission Boardroom, Anniversary Towers, Nairobi.

IEBC chairman Wafula Chebukati had summoned Kuria and asked him to shed light on his allegations but remained adamant that the elections were free, fair, and credible.

“The commission is seized of a report and material against you in regard to violation of Clause 6 (a) and 6(i) of the Electoral Code of Conduct,” read a statement by IEBC on Saturday.

Kuria made the claims on Tuesday during the United Democratic Alliance’s (UDA) National Delegates Convention (NDC) at the Kasarani where Deputy President William Ruto was endorsed to run for president in the August 9 polls.

“There are those saying Mt Kenya region votes will be divided. Honorable Waiguru, Rigathi, Wamatangi, Ichung’wa, Muthomi Njuki, Alice Wahome, Faith Gitau are the ones who made Uhuru win the election and we are the ones who stole for him,” Kuria said.

Kuria is eyeing the Kiambu Governor’s seat on his Chama Cha Kazi party ticket.
