The Kenyan Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission ( IEBC ) is much concerned about the low voters registration as only 760,000 Kenyans have registered to vote against the target of 4.5 million.

According to the chairman of the Kenyan IEBC Mr Wafula Chebukati, he believes Kenyans are waiting until the last minute before they come out in their numbers to register.But it maybe too late since the registration ends on Tuesday November 2. The agency is much concerned about the low voter registration trend.

Mr Wafula Chebukaki further appealed to all Kenyans during a meeting with senior officials from the Judiciary, Ministry of Interior, IEBC and the National Cohesion and Integration Commission which was aimed at discussing the Kenya’s state of election preparedness. To come out in their numbers and register by telling them that, the last minute is now because the registration ends on November 2 and as the matter of fact this happens to be the only chance where the commission will be coming near to them.

The IEBC boss concluded by assuring Kenyans that the next General Election is going to be free, fair and credible as they are working with the other agencies to ensure everything is in place for the 2022 polls.
