The Farmers Party, an affiliate of Kenya Kwanza has petitioned Parliament to kick the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) vice-chairperson, Juliana Cherera and three other commissioners out of office.

Justus Nyanga’ya, Irene Masit and Francis Wanderi are the three commissioners who alongside Cherera, opposed chairperson Wafula Chebukati’s declaration of William Ruto as president-elect. Farmers Party leader and former Devolution PS, Irungu Nyakera, formally submitted the petition to remove the four commissioners in Parliament on Friday, September 9.

Once the petition is deliberated by the National Assembly, the petition will be presented to the President for the appointment of a tribunal for the removal of the commissioners under article 251(3) of the Constitution.
