IEBC panel shortlists 36 for interviews to hire 2022 election chiefs
Dr Elizabeth Muli, chair of the IEBC Selection Panel for the recruitment of four commissioners, addresses the media outside Parliament buildings on May 18, 2021.
Two former chairs of the national rights commission, current and former electoral agency staff, commissioners and lawyers are among those in the shortlist.
The selection panel of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) has shortlisted 36 candidates in its bid to fill four commissioner posts.
The four vacancies in the electoral commission occurred following the resignation of Commissioners Roselyne Akombe in October 2017, as well as Connie Nkatha Maina, Dr Paul Kurgat and Margaret Mwachanya in April 2018.
