Dear Victor,It would be very interesting to get it from IEBC on the reliability/security/robustness/usability of their systems. Taking note that it is quite hard for kenyans to use the IEBC website perform basic functions like applying for the recently advertised vacancies. Are we expecting a repeat of 2013 elections where the VBR kits kept failing? What measures have they put in place? I would also like to to hear from social network reps e.g Facebook/Whatsapp on the issue of fake news in the Kenyan elections.Regards,R.OjinoOn Tue, Jun 13, 2017 at 11:42 PM, Grace Mutung'u via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote:Hi Victor,I would very much be interested in a discussion on Internet shutdown(s) in Kenya in the upcoming election- their possibility, legal basis, actors etc. I would hope to hear from the regulator, NCIC, Safaricom, LSK and users on their view about shutdowns. It would also be great to hear from the Af* community on the outcome of the anti-shutdown proposal that was considered during the recently concluded Africa Internet Summit.Looking forward,2017-06-13 16:46 GMT+03:00 Victor Kapiyo via kictanet <kictanet@lists.kictanet.or.ke> :______________________________Dear Listers,Kindly see the email below from the KIGF MAG requesting for your input to propose topics for the 2017 Kenya IGF.Kindly share your input in the document linked below:Kind regards,Victor KapiyoMAGOn 9 June 2017 at 14:50, Victor Kapiyo <vkapiyo@gmail.com> wrote:Greetings Listers,The Kenya Internet Governance Forum (KIGF) is an annual meeting that brings together various stakeholder groups to dialogue on ICT and Internet policy.
