The newly constituted Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) is set to conduct by-elections for six National Assembly seats and one Senate seat following a leadership crisis that ended on July 12, 2023.

• The IEBC is now tasked with organizing by-elections for seats that have been vacant since 2023.
• Edung Ethekon was sworn in as the new Chairperson, marking a new chapter for the commission.
• The constitution mandates that by-elections occur within **ninety days** of a vacancy declaration.
