Kenyan IEBC Nominee's Net Worth Revealed Amidst Resumed Vetting Process

Kenya's IEBC Nominee Discloses Net Worth Amidst Approval Hearings The vetting process for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) nominees is back underway in Kenya following a High Court ruling that lifted a suspension. The hearings, taking place in County Hall, are attracting significant attention. One nominee, Ann Njeri Nderitu, has revealed her net worth to be approximately Ksh. 138 million. This figure comprises a diverse portfolio of assets, including real estate, multiple properties, vehicles, stocks, and a dairy farm. Her disclosure is generating discussion about the financial transparency of those seeking positions within the IEBC. "My net worth is around Ksh. 138 Million, made up of real estate, few properties, vehicles, few houses, some stocks and dairy farming," Ms. Nderitu stated during the hearing. The High Court's decision to allow parliament to proceed with the vetting process has cleared a significant hurdle, and the hearings are expected to continue. The public is keenly watching the selection process, given the crucial role the IEBC plays in Kenya's elections.
