Former IEBC Commissioner Roselyn Akombe has taken a swipe at the international community, saying they have blindly backed a “deeply flawed” electoral system.
In an interview with American NPR radio, Dr Akombe on Wednesday said the foreign countries failed in their mandate to help Kenya prepare for a credible repeat poll.
‘NO QUESTIONS‘
“It’s a complex situation and where you have international community fully supporting the entire process, without questioning any part of such process,” Dr Akombe said.
“In other countries that I have worked, the international community should have been the first to raise these concerns.”
This was second interview the ex-commissioner was granting foreign media after declaring her resignation on BBC on Wednesday.
She said she quit the commission because she did not want to be part of a flawed election that would “make a mockery” of electoral integrity.
She blamed the international community for failing to assess and tell the world about the environment on which Kenyan’s election will be held.
