A section of civil society organisations under the banner of Uchaguzi Platform is calling on key stakeholders in Kenya’s electoral process to move with haste and implement 10 key reforms ahead of next year’s elections.
The groups want reforms targeting the integrity of the voter register, prevention of electoral violence, political party nominations and transmission of election results, among other areas.
They say the reforms are necessary to ensure the country holds free, fair and transparent elections in 2027.
The civil society organisations have also called on political parties and aspirants to adhere to the recently gazetted election campaign financing regulations.
