Roselyn Akombe, former Commissioner of the IEBC, has paid tribute to Chris Msando, the commission's former ICT Director, eight years after his murder, stating he was "strangled for merely doing his work." Msando was killed just before the 2017 General Elections, which he was overseeing to ensure transparency.

• Msando’s body was discovered on July 31, 2017, in a forest outside Nairobi.
• Akombe resigned from the IEBC weeks after his death and has consistently advocated for justice.
• Msando's killing remains officially unsolved, raising concerns about Kenya's electoral processes.
