IEBC low turnout Turkana as 1.4 million Nyanza voters remain unregistered - April 2026

The Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) in Turkana has reported low voter turnout for the ongoing elections, primarily attributed to persistent security concerns within the region. Over 1.4 million eligible voters in six counties in Kenya's Nyanza region have failed to register, despite possessing national identification documents. Politicians in Wajir County are urging the IEBC to extend the voter registration period, citing challenges faced by residents in arid areas.
