Kakamega County Deputy Governor Ayub Savula has urged President William Ruto and opposition leader Raila Odinga to resolve the IEBC commissioners’ impasse.<\/p>\n

During an ACK get-together meeting at the Archbishop Olang Conference Centre in Kakamega on Monday, Savula said that the electoral agency is a fragile institution that must be handled with caution if Kenyans are to develop confidence in its independence.<\/p>\n

The former Lugari MP said the countrywide rallies planned by Raila to protest the removal of the four commissioners and the formation of Justice Aggrey Muchelule-led tribunal by the President is bad for the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe move by the President alters the fabric that promotes cohesion and peaceful coexistence. Raila should seek a truce for the sake of the country\u2019s stability,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Savula spoke moments after Raila and his Azimio brigade accused the Kenya Kwanza administration of plotting to hijack the electoral commission to assist Ruto to win a second term in 2027.<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
