Our laws only require IEBC to strive to achieve clean register, they have done all they can IMHO. And let's leave it at that for now. Seems you have a higher standard for the city council garbage collection unit than you have for the IEBC. IEBC is one of the best funded commissions. They attract the best talent because they pay better salaries than most blue chip companies for all cadres. In the last four years, they only had one job. To prepare a clean voters register. They didn't do it. So they hired KPMG to do the job for them. Now they have refused to release both the audited register and the KPMG audit report. Both legal requirements. In Ghana, the electoral commission there was not required by law to publish the register. But they did and invited the public to point out any anomalies. That boosted the public confidence in them and allowed them to deliver what is being regarded as the most credible and transparent election in Africa's history

Why then are people claiming there are 400k double entries if register has not been released? And the KPMG audit report, why do you want it? isnt that like witch hunting? If naswa dont trust IEBC let them just say so instead of running round in circles. but it's too late.

This unmanaged daily "complains" and "demands" by NASA will eventually have an effect on their supporters. FATIGUE!!! Cleverly, Jubilee have kept stoking the fire, keeping the distance while their eyes are trained on the votes. NASA will never know what hit them. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

If 3rd parties can pick irregularities, with limited time and resources, why can't the body mandated to clean the register do it and they have had 5 years since last election? Shouldn't we have a system that automatically rejects a double registration, i.e you can't use the same ID twice? Can those who have identified double registrations publicise the same? - 400685 (very nice figure i must say) I care!

Why then are people claiming there are 400k double entries if register has not been released? Law obligates them to publish it online. 5 of them actually. National register, county register, constituency register, ward register and polling station register. They have refused but you can buy from them if interestedAnd the KPMG audit report, why do you want it? isnt that like witch hunting? Again, the law demands they release the audit report within 7 days after receiving it from the auditors. If naswa dont trust IEBC let them just say so instead of running round in circles. but it's too late.

One thing that's still buffing me is the ruling that public participation be there in single sourced tendering.

We have lost this country to Lawyers. Ours must be the most litigious country south of sahara! Truth forever on the scaffold
