Nairobi — Senior Counsel Philip Murgor has cautioned Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chairperson Erastus Edung Ethekon that the responsibility of safeguarding Kenya's electoral integrity ultimately rests with the commission's leadership.

Speaking Thursday during the launch of the 2022 Pre-Election Dispute Resolution Committee Report and Case Digest at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Nairobi, Murgor warned against a repeat of the events surrounding the disputed 2007 General Election.

He reminded the new IEBC chair that decisions made by electoral institutions can have far-reaching consequences for national stability and public confidence in democratic processes.

Drawing parallels with the tenure of former Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK) Chairperson Samuel Kivuitu, Murgor said electoral managers must resist political pressure and uphold the law regardless of the prevailing political environment.

"The buck stops with you," Murgor told Ethekon, emphasizing that impartial dispute resolution and operational independence remain central to peaceful and credible elections.

The warning comes as political activity intensifies ahead of the July 16 Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election and preparations for the 2027 General Election gather pace.

Responding to the concerns, Ethekon defended the commission's readiness, saying lessons from previous elections and judicial decisions are shaping current electoral processes.
