Highcourt overturns IEBC decision to bar presidential aspirant Reuben Kigame

The high Court in Nairobi ordered Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to give Reuben Kigame another chance to submit his nomination for the presidential seat in the upcoming General Election.

Judge Anthony Mrima also ordered the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to include Mr Kigame on the presidential ballot paper.

The judge said in the ruling that IEBC violated Kigame’s rights by locking him out of the presidential contest.
