The ghosts of the dramatic outcome of the 2022 presidential election were reawakened during the National Dialogue Committee hearings on Thursday, with divisions among commissioners in the team that mid-wifed the election playing out as one side maintained it still has no faith in the final result.
The faction of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) that sided with then chairperson Wafula Chebukati refused to attend the hearings, while the other, led by former deputy chairperson Juliana Cherera, sought to spill the beans before the team co-chaired by Wiper leader Kalonzo Musyoka and Kikuyu MP Kimani Ichung'wah.
