Sabina Chege, the Murang'a Woman Representative, is scheduled to appear before the IEBC Code of Conduct Enforcement Committee today to respond to comments she made alleging vote rigging in the 2017 election that propelled President Uhuru Kenyatta to victory.

Sabina, who was wooing supporters to the Azimio la Umoja camp at a rally in Vihiga county, said there was some truth in vote rigging in the 2017 election and that the same could happen in this year's elections.

"Mnajua kule Central nimeskia wengine wakisema tuliwaibia. Kuna ka ukweli kidogo. Lakini kama tulijua kuiba... si hata hii tutafanya ninii... Kwani wanafikiria wao ndio wajanja?" Sabina said.

The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) summoned her over the remarks in a letter sent on Friday.

"WHEREAS THE COMMISSION is seized of a report and material against yourself in regard to violation of clause 6(0) and 6(1) of the Electoral Code of Conduct, you are hereby required to attend the Offices of the Commission at Anniversary Towers 6th floor on the 15th day of February 2022 at 9 .00 o'clock," read the summon letter.
