Irene Masit has faced the axe with President William Ruto making the cut. Masit’s contract had to be terminated as IEBC commissioner following recommendations by Justice Aggrey Muchelule tribunal.
Her position remains vacant, with the tribunal investigating the conduct of four Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) officials last week had recommended that Ms Masit be removed from office.
In a report published last Monday, the team led by Justice Aggrey Muchelule told President William Ruto it found that Ms Masit, who is one of the commissioners, and her former colleagues — Vice Chairperson Juliana Cherera, and commissioners Justus Nyang’aya and Francis Wanderi — were involved in serious violations of the Constitution during the 2022 elections.
