Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>IEBC chair Wafula Chebukati is set to testify against the four IEBC commissioners who disowned the presidential results that indicated President William Ruto won the top seat.<\/p>\n

Of the four commissioners, Juliana Cherera, Francis Wanderi and Justus Nyang’aya have already quit leaving the suspended commissioner Irene Masit to fight for “her innocence”.<\/p>\n

The three former commissioners resigned after President Ruto had suspended them from office.<\/p>\n

According to a report by NTV, Chebukati will now appear before a tribunal formed by President Ruto to probe the four to testify.<\/p>\n

The four embattled former and suspended commissioners will appear individually before the tribunal to defend themselves.<\/p>\n

“Witnesses expected to testify against Masit and the other commissioners are Boya Mulu, Abdi Guliye, Chebukati and IEBC staff,” the report reads.<\/p>\n

The hearing will proceed on December 20 with witnesses against Masit taking the first day.<\/p>\n

The suspended commissioner has already moved to court to block the proceedings against her.<\/p>\n

Masit, through lawyer Donald Kipkorir, wants the court to reinstate her and also block any plans for her replacement at the IEBC.<\/p>\n

She further wants all her privileges that have been withdrawn reinstated.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the inter-partes hearing, the contractual rights of the petitioner existing ante December 2, 2022, as IEBC commissioner be reinstated,\u201d Masit says in court documents.<\/p>\n

In the urgent application, Masit wants Justice Aggrey Muchelule\u2019s tribunal stopped from commencing the probe.<\/p>\n

Masit also wants the court to temporarily suspend the effect of the gazette notice dated December 2, suspending her and her fellow commissioners, pending investigations by a tribunal named to probe their conduct.<\/p>\n
