Dear KICTANet Team,
I join you in mourning the passing of former IEBC Chairperson Wafula Chebukati. His willingness to engage with stakeholders on the role of technology in elections was commendable and played a crucial role in advancing transparency and accountability in Kenya’s electoral process.
His openness to dialogue and collaboration with organizations like KICTANet set a strong foundation for continuous improvements in electoral technology. His contributions will be remembered with great respect.
My heartfelt condolences to his family, colleagues, and all who had the privilege of working with him.
Best regards,
Alexander Kathanzu.
May his soul rest in peace.Best Regards_______________________________________________On Fri, 21 Feb 2025, 12:18 pm David Indeje via KICTANet, <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:_______________________________________________
Dear Listers,
We at KICTANet are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) Chairperson, Wafula Chebukati.
We extend our condolences to his family, colleagues, friends, and colleagues.
The late Chebukati played a role in fostering engagement between the IEBC and organizations like KICTANet. We particularly appreciate his openness to our discussions regarding the role of technology in elections.
He facilitated a vital dialogue, allowing our Election Observation team to monitor the use of technology and providing us with a platform to share our expertise and concerns.
We recall with gratitude the productive meeting we held with him and other IEBC officials where we discussed critical issues such as online misinformation, the use of digital technologies for information dissemination, and the importance of real-time results broadcasting. His leadership in these discussions was invaluable.
Chairman Chebukati's commitment to open communication and collaboration was essential in navigating the complex landscape of electoral technology. His efforts paved the way for organizations like KICTANet to contribute to the goal of free, fair, and credible elections in Kenya.
We remember his contributions with respect and gratitude.
The KICTANet Team
